Oracle ULA - How to do Oracle ULA review

For more information about Oracle ULA - read our article at https://redresscompliance.com/oracle-ula-certification-this-is-how-you-exit/

Oracle ULA contract review | 4 terms every company MUST negotiate & 2 terms that you can skip

00:00​​ Reviewing State of Montana ULA (publicly available)
00:05 High level description of what is an Oracle ULA
00:30 Fredrik talks about the main page of the Oracle ULA contract, which is the ordering document.
01:00​ Fredrik says that he doesn't like contracts that mix Unlimited and fixed quantities, because you will be locked into paying support for all products.
01:40​ Fredrik googled and found out from Montana State Legislature document that they signed the ULA because they were audited by Oracle for VMware.
02:15 Fredrik says that ULA contracts signed at the end of an license audit are usually over-priced
02:45 Looks at the licensing fees and support fees that the customer needs to pay to oracle.
03:05 Customer definition/appendix is the most important contract term to negotiate. Fredrik says they have a non-standard customer definition that has been negotiated.
03:43 Territory clause is important to negotiate
03:50 You must negotiate the technical support cost, it will save you money. You negotiate the technical support cap (which increases by 4% YoY)
04:25 Listing all older support contracts that will be terminated and all old support contracts will be ONE support stream.
04:40 What is the big DECISION all Oracle ULA customers must make, is that they give away the right to terminate support per contract
05:05 Fredrik says that if you want to reduce ULA costs, your only choice is third party support provider like Spinnaker. 1. Exit ULA 2. Move to third party support.
05:35 The more legacy support you have, the more willing Oracle is to get you to sign a ULA contract.
05:55 Fredrik says that Oracle is essentially a large maintenance company.
06:15 Fredrik talks about UNLIMITED DEPLOYMENT RIGHT contract term. This is not a standard clause, which was negotiated by State of Montana.
06:40 Certification process is "how do you exit your ULA" Fredrik says its very important to negotiate this contract term.
07:00 When can you be in breach of your Oracle ULA contract?
07:20 If you want to start saving money on your ULA, you need to exit your Oracle ULA
07:33 State of Montana negotiated a text saying there is no true up of support if you exit your ULA. That is not needed.
08:08 They also negotiated a 1 year no audit clause, this is not important as Oracle will not audit ULA customers. They also dont audit more than 1 time in 3 years. Fredrik says the clause is almost pointless.
08:57 Fredrik thinks its unlikely that this customer managed to exit their ULA, as Oracle almost always finds out of compliance when ULA is expiring.
09:25 Legal entities/appendix - must be prepared by legal and reviewed.

4 Recommendations for companies who are leaving their Oracle ULAs

00:00 Use Oracle LMS scripts to validate your license position and identify non ULA software that may cause financial risk
00:07 Perform a detailed ULA Contract Analysis as the basis for your ULA exit strategy. The contract explains your exit process
00:14 Use Oracle Soft Partitioning policy as your guiding principle to maximize your ULA
00:32 Try to match database enterprise edition licenses with options/management pack to minimize the risk of future non-compliance.
00:56 Fredrik says that if you have done a good job managing your ULA, you should NEVER renew the same ULA with the same products.
01:12 Follow the contract when you should submit ULA certification documents, not earlier unless it is in your interest.
01:32 Fredrik says that Oracle are usually quiet flexible about the dates when you need to submit data to Oracle.
01:48 Once you tell Oracle you intend to exit, Oracle attitude often changes that there will be a focus on finding non-compliance which is often used to propose a new ULA

If you need help we have a service designed to help you pay zero to Oracle you can read about it here. https://redresscompliance.com/oracle-audit-services/

this video Fredrik talks about how you can understand if the audit is a fishing trip or a targetted audit where Oracle have strong suspicions or evidence of non compliance.

00:00 Introduction
00:03 Oracle license audit process, from Oracle Point of View
00:18 If Oracle wants a partner to conduct the audit, Fredrik recommends that you review your audit clause.
00:33 Who will Oracle send the audit notification letter to?
00:46 What if Oracle reaches out to you before the 45 days notification time is up. Fredrik says that if they do, you should worry.
01:18 If you have not heard from Oracle in 45 days, it indicates that Oracle selected you randomly (fishing trip)
01:43 Fredrik explains that Oracle EBS customers are targetted often if they do not have full use Oracle Database Enterprise edition and Oracle Weblogic Server Enterprise Edition.
02:02 When you purchase Oracle EBS licenses, you recieve restricted use licenses for Oracle Database Enterprise Edition and Oracle Weblogic, however the restrictions are such that almost no company avoid buying full use licenses.
02:30 What is the scope of the audit? Which products does Oracle want to audit? Oracle often doesnt want to audit every product.
02:49 If Oracle only wants to audit one product group, you can suspect that Oracle believes or already knows you to be out of compliant.
