When planning an OCI contract, assessing the overall economics and value performance has several key inputs and considerations.

In my experience, the Support Rewards calculation alone can tip the balance from a competing AWS offer to OCI.

I specialize in software licensing, IT cost management, and spend optimization. I help clients get the most value out of their IT investments while managing compliance risks. My career began at Deloitte & Touche LLP in the San Francisco/San Jose area, where I developed expertise in software license management around IBM, HP, Microsoft and other software vendors. I also assisted with SOX audits and business/IT controls. Later, I joined Oracle’s License Management Servers (LMS) group, performing license audits and contributing to the development of audit tools and methodologies.
