Windows Server
As part of the tender, the MFA required licences for the latest Windows Server 2022 Standard server operating system. The requirements also included licenses for Windows Server Datacenter 2022, which enables high availability and scalability for the deployment of mission-critical applications and services.
The goal of the project was to upgrade to the latest version of Windows Server in licenses for a total of 352 cores.
New licences from the free market? Cheap and transparent
We provided the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with licenses for Windows Server 2022 Standard from the available market that matched the required number of processor cores, which included the delivery of separate Software Assurance for SQL. The MFA thus achieved significant savings at the cost of the latest versions. All in a legal and transparent manner with complete documentation.
