Re: The cost of Oracle in AWS

 Upendra
The client is not worried from Licensing or Cost perspective as they want to stick one Cloud vendor for all needs. As we have only two Oracle Database on RAC 11g and upgrading soon to 12c and all others are Microsoft SQL Server.

So main requirement ask me to check as what are pros and cons of moving to Microsoft and if there are lots of issues then can keep Oracle internal and upgrade Hardware and Software. So want to see if someone is moved to Microsoft cloud and what are his experience ? Thanks for the link as that can also help me to understand on Licensing/Cost for own purpose. TxSanjay

Can someone share pros and cons of moving to Microsoft cloud. We are not going to Oracle Cloud as client has lots of Windows infrastructure and got very good deal in terms of Cloud infrastructure and reviewing if there is any benefit in moving the Oracle also to Microsoft cloud TxSanjay

Just in case you missed it, Oracle just doubled to the cost of running in Amazon’s cloud.
