Roadmap to cloud: "Will my existing Oracle licenses be enough?"
Building your roadmap to the cloud but needing to understand what to expect? Explore how our data insight services can help you answer the big cloud questions, such as:
- “What might it look like?”
- “What would the cost be?”
- “Will more licenses be required?”
- “Will my existing Oracle licenses be enough when they are worth less in AWS or Azure?”
Your first move before your next move should always be to fully understand your current IT footprint. Primesize can help you understand your IT landscape to ensure you make the right decisions, especially when it comes to making the move to the cloud or optimising your current cloud footprint.
Our Primesize Data Insight Services can create Target Architecture Reports that determines resource requirements, provides advice for the optimum target architecture, and considers license constraints, consolidation opportunities and costs, e.g., On-Premise vs Hyperscale Cloud. This report determines the feasibility of alternative architectures and provides an environment roadmap to the cloud.
Once you’re in the cloud, we can help you focus on innovation, not maintenance, with a fully managed cloud environment.
