Product overview
Windows infrastructure should not hold back cloud modernisation
Many organisations are carrying Windows Server estates that are expensive to license, difficult to patch and hard to scale. AWS SDP gives the business a route to reduce licensing pressure while modernising the operational model around Windows workloads.
Cloudwrxs combines AWS programme knowledge, regional delivery experience and practical migration assessment methods to identify where savings are real, where risks need to be managed and which workloads should move first.

What is AWS Software Discount Program for Windows?
AWS SDP helps eligible organisations reduce Windows Server licensing cost when workloads are modernised and run on AWS. The right saving depends on the current estate, licence position and migration route.
