The licensing number nobody models before the migration starts

The compute is sized, the timeline is set, and the licensing math gets modeled after the fact, usually when a change order is the only way to fix it. By then the target platform, the instance shapes, and the support model are already locked in.

Priced by headcount, not by installation

Instance shapes and timelines get locked in before anyone models what the licensing position looks like on the new platform.

Every platform counts differently

AWS, Azure, OCI, and Nutanix each apply different rules to processor, vCPU, and OCPU counting. A model built for one does not transfer to another.

The fix gets harder after cutover

Once the target platform and instance shapes are live, correcting a licensing mismatch means a change order, not a planning conversation.

WHAT YOU GET

A licensing model built for your target platform, not a generic estimate

1

Platform-specific exposure model

Modeled against your actual target platform (AWS, Azure, OCI, or Nutanix), not a generic estimate.
2

BYOL vs. license-included comparison

Scoped to your edition and the options you actually have enabled.
3

Right-sizing recommendation

Before you commit compute, so you are not licensing capacity you do not need.
4

A brief built for two audiences

Procurement and architecture read the same document instead of two conflicting ones.
HOW IT WORKS

Five steps to migration confidence

1

Your data

You upload data you have or that we will help you gather, including entitlement records, target platform requirements, and a current inventory export. No new agents.

2

Opscompass intelligence

Opscompass analyzes your current usage and licensing position, and creates optimized live models for the target platform that you can review

3

Expert validation

A House of Brick licensing and platform specialist reviews the models and signs off before you make your final decisions.

4

Targeted reports

Do you need an executive summary presentation, or an architecture document to share with the team? Opscompass generates whatever artifacts you require.

5

Migration monitoring

Opscompass can continue to monitor your usage and license position as the migration starts, ensuring you are meeting your objectives and managing risk.

One Fortune 500 insurance carrier reversed $1.89M in Oracle licensing exposure before finishing its migration to Amazon RDS, without buying a single new license.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Migration licensing, answered

How long does this take?
Most assessments return a modeled position within a week of receiving data.
Do you need access to our cloud accounts?
No. The assessment runs from entitlement records and inventory exports you already have.
