AWS License Manager now helps you easily identify Windows and SQL Server License Included instances

Posted on: Oct 25, 2019

AWS License Manager has enhanced the application search experience, allowing you to easily identify Microsoft Windows and SQL Server instances that are using Amazon provided software licenses. With the new capability, AWS License Manager enables you to filter your search results based on whether you are using bring-your-own-license (BYOL) instances or the License Included instances provided by Amazon. This capability is available for Windows Server Datacenter Edition, SQL Server Enterprise Edition, SQL Server Standard Edition, and SQL Server Web Edition products.

AWS License Manager makes it easier to manage your existing software licenses from vendors such as Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, and IBM to AWS and centrally manage them across AWS and your on-premises environments. It is offered at no additional charges. Visit the product documentation, and AWS License Manager FAQ page to learn more. See the AWS Region Table for the list of regions where License Manager is currently available.
