Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)

You can bring your own SQL Server license using License Mobility through Active Software Assurance. Microsoft Volume Licensing customers can move eligible Microsoft server application licenses purchased under a Volume Licensing agreement to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. To do this, you must enroll in the License Mobility through Microsoft Software Assurance benefit. This benefit is included with an active Software Assurance contract. You don't need to purchase additional Microsoft software licenses, and there are no associated mobility fees. The following restrictions apply:

• When you move your Microsoft SQL license using the license mobility process, the Microsoft Windows Server license is not included. Microsoft Windows Server licenses are not permitted to be moved under License Mobility. Windows Server operating systems must use the license issued by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

• Perpetual licenses can be moved from on-premises or other cloud providers only after more than 90 days have passed since the last license move.

• End-of-support versions are not supported on shared host virtual machines on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

• You can use your Visual Studio (MSDN) subscription license for non-production purposes on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure on either bare metal or virtual machine instances. You are responsible for complying with the Visual Studio subscription terms.
