Can you easily determine the licensing costs of IBM Infosphere, IBM Infosphere Information Server and IBM Infosphere Datastage?
In many cases, it can be difficult to determine the licensing costs of IBM ETL & Data Integration because it depends on the country, the number of users, the connectors to data sources, and at what point in the year you request a quote. If you request a quote just before the end of the fiscal period of IBM, you can probably get a decent reduction in the license cost. As part of a cloud-first strategy, it makes sense running the software in the cloud, you only pay for the actual use. The purchase cost of IBM Infosphere, IBM Infosphere Information Server and IBM Infosphere Datastage may not be the single largest expense, but maintenance and support do show up in your budget every year.
