OUR SOLUTION — JAVIDENCE™ + SPECIALIST CONSULTANCY

Javidence™ - a precise, evidence‑led path to the right number.

Javidence™ connects discovery, dependency and licence intelligence with specialist Oracle Java licensing expertise. You retain full control of your environment throughout.

THE STEPS
01

Discovery & Inventory

Javidence™ discovers Java evidence across approved filesystems and enterprise environments, then classifies each finding by the relevant licensing context.

·  Bare metal, VM, container & cloud ·  Linux, Windows & macOS ·  Identifies all Java applications
02

ELP Analysis

We build an evidence‑supported Effective Licence Position — classifying licensable and bundled Java, modelling relevant metrics, and exposing the gap between Oracle’s ask and the planning position supported by your evidence.

·  Explainable, traceable figures ·  Free editions correctly excluded ·  True headcount in scope
03

Negotiation Support

An optional Consultancy Service.
With a clear, evidence-based picture in hand, we support you through your conversations with Oracle — so you can approach them with confidence, clarity and verified facts on your side.

·  Facts over guesswork ·  Pay only for what you use ·  Assist you until deal completion
JAVIDENCE™ BY RIGHT‑SIZING

Your team runs it. Your data stays home.

Because the scan needs access to your servers and endpoints, your team executes it directly — so your security and data‑privacy policies are fully respected. We guide you at every step.

No permanently installed Right‑Sizing endpoint agent. Customer‑hosted and air‑gap capable, with no mandatory vendor‑cloud upload.

Parallel

Automated scanning across your entire fleet at once — every host at its own pace.

Agentless

No permanent endpoint agent is required. Avoid the time, complexity and disruption of installing and maintaining agents across thousands, or even tens of thousands, of endpoints.

Broad coverage

On‑premise, cloud, VDI, endpoints and containers — including restricted and intermittently connected environments.

Explainable

Every binary classified across all five Oracle Java licence types — BCL, OTN, NFTC, RUL and BLRA — so it’s clear what’s free, what’s licensable, and what’s bundled.

FLEXIBLE EVIDENCE COVERAGE

One specialist Java view across the modern enterprise.

Different operating environments need different collection and evidence paths. Javidence™ normalises them into one consistent analysis without publishing the proprietary mechanics behind the platform.

ESTATE

Servers & endpoints

Physical and virtual servers, cloud, VDI, desktops and laptops—including devices that may be temporarily offline.

CONTROL

Restricted networks (air-gapped)

Customer‑controlled options for government, defence, banking, critical infrastructure and other highly governed environments.

CONTAINERS

Three evidence pathways

Running containers, selected registry images and supported third‑party SBOM or software‑inventory evidence.

DEPENDENCY

Application & runtime context

Connect Java installations with the applications, runtimes and packaged components that may rely on them.

LICENSING

Multiple commercial models

Universal Subscription, Processor and Named User Plus analysis using evidence appropriate to each scenario.

OUTCOME

Validated optimisation

Prioritise action, retain rationale, validate change and maintain traceability from executive summary to technical evidence.

THE REPORT

Your entire Java estate, made clear.

The scan resolves into a single interactive licensing dashboard — a 360‑degree view of your estate. Java version, licence status, host details, installation path, install date, etc; every dimension captured, classified and laid out in full. Below is a real example of what you receive — an executive view of where you stand, down to the version‑by‑version detail behind it.

Java Licensing Dashboard — Executive Summary
Executive Summary dashboard showing total hosts, licensable installations and licence-type breakdown
Executive Summary

The whole estate at a glance — total hosts scanned, total installations and exactly how many are licensable versus free, with a clear remediation status alongside.

Java Licensing Dashboard — Version Analysis
Version Analysis table grouping Java installations by major version with licensable, NFTC and BCL breakdown
Version Analysis

Installations grouped by major Java version — with the licensable, NFTC and BCL split made explicit for every release, so the source of your exposure is never a mystery.

Java Licensing Dashboard — Licence Status
Licence Status Distribution donut chart and summary table showing the share of licensable versus non-licensable installations
Licence Status Distribution

A single, unambiguous breakdown of what is licensable versus free across the entire estate — the picture that anchors every conversation that follows.

Java Licensing Dashboard — Licensable Installations
Licensable Java Installations table listing each host, IP, environment, OS, CPU, cores, Java version and physical path
Licensable Installations

Down to the individual install — host, environment, processor, Java version and exact path — searchable across hundreds of thousands of rows. The evidence behind every headline figure.

More than a dashboard — a complete evidence pack.

Everything on screen is exportable to a polished, presentation‑ready executive report and to raw data your own team can review and verify. The figures are sourced live, never estimated — so every number is one you can stand behind.

The big picture

KPI summary, licence-status donut and recommended next steps in one screen.

Deep findings

Per-host and per-installation detail, searchable and fully exportable.

Version & environment

Breakdown by Java version, OS family and virtual‑vs‑bare‑metal footprint.

Executive report

A polished, branded report generated on demand — charts, tables and narrative.

WE SUPPORT ALL LICENSING MODELS

Renewing, or starting fresh? We right‑size both.

We work fluently in both, whether you’re facing Oracle for the first time or renewing a long‑standing agreement.

NET‑NEW today’s model

Universal Subscription

Priced per employee — total headcount

Oracle’s current model counts your entire headcount — every full‑time, part‑time, temporary and contract employee.

WHERE WE HELP

We prove how many employees are genuinely in scope — so you’re measured on reality.

RENEWAL the prior model

Legacy Subscription

Processor — servers NUP — named users

Processor licence is for servers (cores × Oracle’s core factor) and Named User Plus for client users.

WHERE WE HELP

We verify your processor, core factor and NUP counts accurately, so you only pay for what you currently use.

The renewal decision matters. Moving from legacy Processor & NUP licensing to Universal Subscription can help or hurt, depending on your headcount and footprint. We model both paths with verified data so the choice is an informed one — never a default.

WHO OWNS WHAT

A clear division of responsibility.

The three steps above describe what happens. This is who does it — so the boundary between your team and ours is clear before we begin.

1 The automation tool and the licensing expertise behind it. RSC
2 Running the scan on your own infrastructure — data and access stay fully in‑house. CUSTOMER
3 Building the verified ELP — reviewed together so you own and understand every figure. RSC + CUSTOMER
4 (Optional) Consultancy Service — Support and verified facts for your conversations with Oracle. RSC + CUSTOMER

A note on scope. Migrating away from Oracle Java to OpenJDK is not part of our engagement — but where it makes sense for you, we’ll happily refer you to a suitable, independent vendor.

See where you stand — with evidence.
