Overview

WWT’s Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA) is a valuable resource for healthcare companies seeking to enhance their cloud migration strategy and optimize costs. Let’s delve into how this assessment applies to healthcare organizations:

  1. Resource Optimization:
  • The OLA employs a tool-based discovery approach to rightsize resources for workloads. It provides insights into compute resources, helping identify the best instance types for each workload on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), or VMware Cloud on AWS.

  • By determining the right mix of on-demand and spot instances, as well as considering Bring Your Own Licenses (BYOL) and license-included instances, healthcare companies can tailor their environment for cost-effectiveness.

  1. Cost Reduction:
  • Running workloads in the cloud requires fewer instances and licenses due to cloud elasticity. Optimizing cloud infrastructure is crucial for cost reduction.

  • The OLA offers 60% greater license efficiency, helping healthcare organizations avoid overprovisioning third-party licensing. Recommendations from the assessment guide instance configurations to minimize licensing costs.

  • By adapting their on-premises licensing strategy based on OLA insights, healthcare companies can achieve a smoother cloud migration.

  1. Flexible Licensing Options:
  • The OLA models both dedicated and license-included environments, allowing healthcare organizations to pay for what they use. This flexibility maximizes value and optimizes cloud compute and licensing costs.

  • Modeling licensing scenarios, including license-included or BYOL instances, enables healthcare companies to manage seasonal workloads and experiment agilely.

  1. Covered Workloads:
  • The OLA covers Microsoft SQL Server, Windows Server, VMWare, and Oracle  on AWS. Research indicates that migrating to AWS can reduce Windows Server license costs by an average of 77% and SQL Server license costs by an average of 45%.*

  • By leveraging the OLA’s recommendations, healthcare organizations can make informed decisions about the optimal version (Standard or Enterprise) to support their workloads.

In summary, WWT’s OLA empowers healthcare companies to assess their licensing requirements, optimize resource utilization, and make cost-effective decisions during their cloud journey on AWS.
