Cloud TCO examination in no time

The step into the public cloud has many advantages. But only those who have a valid basis for decision-making will achieve their goals with the cloud:

• Reduce costs

• Increase flexibility

• Maximize business success

With our many years of experience in on-premises and data center solutions, we know that initial server sizing quickly reaches its capacity limits or causes unused capacity. Infrastructures therefore grow historically, new servers and virtual machines are deployed and deactivated again. Licenses are imported and returned to a pool again. Architectures are adapted and further developed, as are teams and the organization.

However, one major problem remains: documentation and traceability. AWS has an answer to this challenge: OLA.

As a leading AWS partner in the DACH region, we use the Optimization and License Assessment (OLA) to analyze customer environments holistically. With a standardized approach, we can show you your actual resource usage, third-party licensing and application dependencies in concrete terms.

The result of the OLA is a comprehensive report that gives you...

• An as-is analysis of your server landscape (e.g. number of Windows & Linux servers, Windows licensing status and risk analysis)

• AWS TCO for the migration of the server landscape

• Identification of additional services that can add business value to your migration

• 1. Which server infrastructure should be considered?

• 2. Deployment of the tool (e.g. Migration Evaluator from AWS) for data generation
