It's What You Don't See That's Costing You

Uncover hidden savings and efficiencies with the iOCO | AWS Optimisation and Licensing Assessment  

Identify opportunities to optimise your  infrastructure, workloads and licensing environment

Infrastructure grows. Licensing renews. Workloads are added as the business evolves. Over time, the true cost of that environment becomes harder to see.

Optimisation opportunities go unidentified. Licensing inefficiencies go unaddressed. Decisions get made without a complete view.

iOCO's AWS Optimisation and Licensing Assessment (OLA) is a fact-based assessment of your current environment — what you have, how it's being used, and where you may be able to reduce spend, improve performance, or make better-informed decisions about what to keep, move, or change.

The environments that benefit from an OLA

The complimentary iOCO  |  AWS OLA is available to qualifying organisations and is a strong fit if your environment includes:

  • On-premises infrastructure

  • VMware, Microsoft or Oracle workloads

  • Existing cloud environments you want to optimise or right-size

  • Plans to migrate to the cloud.
