Introduction
Defend Against Oracle Java Audits — and Cut Millions in Unnecessary Costs
At Redress Compliance, we help global enterprises navigate the complexities of Oracle Java SE licensing — especially under Oracle’s aggressive audit programs. Whether you’re facing a formal Java LMS audit or a “soft” compliance inquiry from Oracle Sales, we equip you with the facts, data, and strategy to defend your position and avoid overspending.
We’re not Oracle partners. We don’t resell Java subscriptions. We’re 100% independent — which means our only priority is helping you:
✅ Stay compliant
✅ Eliminate audit risk
✅ Reduce Java subscription costs
✅ Regain control of your Oracle Java strategy
Our Java audit defense and licensing assessment case studies reveal how CIOs, software asset managers, and procurement leaders have:
- Resolved multi-million dollar Java SE audit claims — reduced to zero or minimal cost
- Defended against both formal Oracle LMS audits and soft compliance inquiries
- Eliminated unnecessary Java SE subscriptions across servers, desktops, and dev environments
- Migrated off Oracle JDK in favor of OpenJDK, cutting recurring costs
- Negotiated fair, minimal Java licensing coverage where needed — and nothing more
What You’ll Learn From Our Java Licensing & Audit Defense Case Studies
1. How we’ve helped enterprises avoid Java compliance exposure of $10M+
By identifying unnecessary Java SE deployments, proving entitlement, and replacing Oracle JDK with OpenJDK — even across global environments.
2. Real-life Oracle Java audit defense strategies
From soft inquiries to formal LMS audits, learn how we helped clients push back on inflated claims and shut down aggressive Java licensing tactics.
3. Java licensing optimization opportunities hidden in plain sight
See how we reduced Java SE subscription counts by cleaning up unused installs, segmenting environments, and eliminating blanket licensing assumptions.
4. Licensing strategies aligned with future Java roadmap
Our case studies show how we helped clients license only what they need — avoiding long-term lock-ins and aligning with OpenJDK migration plans.
5. Immediate steps to take before Oracle initiates a Java audit
What to uninstall, how to document usage, and which licensing pitfalls to avoid — so you’re audit-ready and fully in control.
