How Hard is the Journey?



Applications Are CRITICAL

Prolonged Outage Not Acceptable

Service Continuity is Non-Negotiable

Cross-Platform Relocation is Complex

High Failure Rates

Native Application Formats Not Easily Portable

Each Application Requires SPECIAL Handling

Application AND Platform Experience Required

Can Lead to Vendor/Platform “Lock-in”

External SME Resources Required

External SME Resources Expensive

Complex Planning

Iterative Testing and Validation Costly

More Scenarios: Licensing SQL Server on VMware Cloud on AWS

vMotion licensed SQL Server VMs from on premise data center to VMCW/o SA, customers cannot vMotion SQL server VMs from on premise data centers to VMC. With SA, customers can do that once every 90 days, because on premise data center and VMC are not within one server farm.

BYOL existing on premise SQL Server licenses to VMCW/o SA, customers cannot reassign existing on premise SQL Server licenses to VMC. With SA, customers can do that once every 90 days.

Use Site Recovery to protect on premise SQL Server workloads and recover them in VMCCustomers need to purchase the same number of SQL server cores licenses as on premise primary site for the secondary site on VMC.

VM-host affinityIn development. With vm-host affinity, customers don’t have to license all the hosts in the cluster. Customers can restrict SQL Server VMs to a subset of the hosts to save cost.

Small clusterIn development. Now the minimum is the 4 host. Customers need 144 core licenses to license the entire cluster, which is not cost effective to some customers. With 2-host or 3-host cluster, customers can save 50% or 25% of their cost.

Non-productionSQL Server has developer edition which is free for development and testing.
