CiRBA on Wednesday announced the general availability of a Software License Control System that enables organizations to reduce the costs associated with processor-based software licensing by an average of 55%.
CiRBA CTO and co-founder Andrew Hillier noted that “with the shift to data center class software licensing for virtual infrastructure, where licensing an entire physical host server allows an unlimited number of instances to be run, licensing optimization is now becoming a capacity management challenge.”
The Software License Control module is an add-on to CiRBA’s Capacity Control Console and optimizes VM placements in virtual and cloud infrastructure.
