Ask Us About Our No-Cost OLA Assessment

Delivered through AWS programs designed to help you assess, plan, and optimize before your next major renewal.

What is OLA?

The Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA) is a 30-day, fully funded engagement that helps you gain a clear, data-backed understanding of your current IT costs, licensing models, and performance options.

We analyze your current workloads, licensing models, and infrastructure usage to help you understand the total cost, licensing impact, and performance trade-offs of staying with your current environment versus exploring cloud or hybrid alternatives.

Our goal is to give you the data to make the right call for your business.

Why it Matters

Identify Immediate Savings

Uncover up to 30-50% savings by right sizing compute resources, optimizing licensing, and eliminating underutilized assets.

Gain Visibility & Control

Get a full view of your current IT footprint, from workloads to licensing and utilization, to make data-driven renewal decisions.

Validate Your Business Case

Receive a clear, executive-ready cost and ROI model comparing the impact of staying on-premises versus exploring cloud or hybrid options.

Explore Modernization Opportunities

Identify where managed, serverless, or open-source services could drive efficiency (only if and when it makes sense for your organization).

What We Assess

Our OLA provides an objective analysis across your core enterprise workloads, including:

Windows & SQL Server

Understand licensing exposure, right-sizing, and paths to optimize or modernize.

Oracle & Legacy Databases

Evaluate licensing impact and explore cost-efficient alternatives, including AWS-managed and open-source engines.

VMware Environments

Assess total cost, licensing, and performance considerations for maintaining VMware on-prem or exploring VMware Cloud on AWS.

Storage & Backup Systems

Identify opportunities to reduce storage spend or improve data resilience with cloud or hybrid storage models.

Cloud-to-Cloud Environments

Assess workloads moving between or operating across AWS, Azure, and GCP for cost and performance optimization.

Custom Applications

Evaluate modernization potential through containers (ECS/EKS) or serverless (Lambda), balanced with operational and business priorities.

What You Can Expect

  • A clear, data-driven picture of your current environment, costs, and dependencies.
  • Fact-based recommendations for reducing spend, optimizing performance, and improving licensing efficiency.
  • A comparative model that outlines the financial and operational impact of staying BAU versus moving to cloud or hybrid options.
  • Access to AWS-funded programs that help de-risk your assessment and build a case for informed decision-making.
