Intro:
Is your business concerned about paying for server capacity that you are not using all the time? Are you unsure about your server licensing procurement strategy?

AWS has a number of options available to help businesses right size their future state cloud environment and reduce Microsoft licensing costs including “double bubble” during your migration journey. If you have on-premises Windows Workloads and need cost projections for running those workloads on cloud, either for starting the migration conversation or beginning your migration plan, then join this webinar to find out more about Optimization and Licensing Assessments (OLA). The OLA program can connect you with the tooling and subject matter experts to see potential cost savings for migrating your Windows Workloads to cloud. Take advantage of flexible licensing options on Cloud to make the most of your existing licenses before you start your migration.

In this one hour live webinar, you will learn: 
  • How we can help customers to right size future Microsoft workloads that will be running on AWS
  • How AWS can help reduce your Microsoft licensing cost
  • How businesses can establish which applications are prime for migrating to the cloud
  • How to build a business case for migrating to AWS
