Understanding & Optimizing Your Oracle Java Environment

Overview

The Oracle Java licensing landscape has changed significantly. Since January 23, 2023, Oracle’s Java
SE Universal Subscription requires licensing for all “employees” — including full-time, part-time, temporary staff, contractors, third-party personnel, and subsidiary employees who access environments running Oracle Java.

For many organizations, this shift means that Java usage that was previously free may now require a paid subscription. Without accurate visibility into where and how Java is deployed, companies risk unexpected licensing costs, compliance breaches, and even audit penalties. In addition to licensing implications, unsupported or outdated Java versions can create serious security vulnerabilities, putting business operations and sensitive data at risk. Integralis’ Oracle Java Baseline & Advanced Assessments provide the clarity, control, and compliance assurance that you need.

Whether you require a high-level snapshot or a full compliance and optimization strategy, our services can help you discover all Java installations, assess ing your licensing needs, and create a clear, actionable roadmap to safeguard both your budget and your business in the current and future state.
