Cloud adoption doesn’t automatically fix IT overspend. In many estates, money leaks quietly through underused licences, outdated agreements, and misaligned provisioning. The biggest challenge is a lack of visibility. Without knowing what’s being paid for and how it’s used, optimisation remains out of reach.

Why Licensing Visibility Is Critical

Blind spots in licensing create costly inefficiencies:

• Over-provisioned systems that consume resources without delivering value.
• Duplicate or idle licences left active but unused.
• Contract mismatches that trap organisations in expensive, outdated terms.

The AWS Optimisation and Licensing Assessment (OLA) provides a fact-based view of workloads, usage, and contracts, removing guesswork from IT decisions.

How OLA Brings Overspend Under Control

• Precise workload inventory captures every licence and resource in use.
• Utilisation analysis shows which systems are over- or under-used.
• Licence mapping identifies duplication and waste.
• Data-driven recommendations highlight where savings and modernisation opportunities lie.

What Visibility Delivers

• Measured savings from rightsizing workloads and eliminating waste.
• Clear migration paths with fewer unknowns.
• Greater financial control through fact-backed decision-making.

You can’t optimise what you can’t measure.
