Optimize Current Windows Licenses to Cut Costs Before Migrating to AWS

Increase Microsoft workload visibility by implementing an Mastersystem’s solution

Empower your cloud strategy by collaborating with Mastersystem Infotama to develop a migration plan using Amazon Web Services Optimization and Licensing Assessment (AWS OLA) to help reduce costs an optimize compute. Employing this free service helps you accurately assess the Microsoft workloads currently in your on-premises or cloud environment, enabling you to make educated decisions to model your infrastructure optimized on AWS- including the impact of licensing dependencies. The tools used capture existing utilization data across your environment so you can accurately right-size cloud architecture, pinpoint application dependency requirements, project costs, and get clarity on what will be necessary as you formulate your AWS migration plan.

Planning and executing your cloud adoption journey with the help of Mastersystem and the reliable data provided by the AWS OLA equips your organization with right-sized and license-optimized cost models for your Microsoft workloads on AWS. Combining the AWS OLA infrastructure output with your current licensing position can help you make better informed decisions on the pros and cons of choosing to use either your Microsoft Volume Licenses (BYOL), or AWS License Included (LI) instances on the cloud.

In addition to bringing your own licenses, your organization can choose to leverage LI instances. Doing so relieves the burden of managing licenses because AWS assumes that responsibility, ensuring continuous compliance and positioning you to only pay for those licenses while they are in use. This removes the need to make licensing purchases that are based on peak usage levels and lock you in for 36 months. This enables AWS and Mastersystem to oer concise, data-backed, optimized, and cost-eective licensing recommendations.
