Many enterprises still run Oracle Java without realizing it — buried in desktop tools, middleware, or embedded in third-party applications. This untracked usage can quickly become a financial risk, especially under Oracle’s aggressive Java SE subscription model, where even a single unlicensed install can escalate into a six- or seven-figure compliance issue.
This white paper provides a clear, actionable roadmap to regain control. You'll learn how to identify every instance of Oracle Java across your environment, assess licensing status, and determine where removal, downgrading, or replacement is possible. We guide you through practical migration strategies — including how to move from Oracle JDK to OpenJDK or older BCL versions — and how to proactively eliminate unnecessary licensing before it triggers an audit.
Whether you're already on Oracle’s radar or taking steps to minimize risk, this guide is your first move toward eliminating Java exposure and protecting your organization from unexpected compliance costs.
