If you thought Oracle audits were an issue in past years, buckle your seat belts for 2021. We expect Oracle audits to reach new heights of frequency and intensity over the coming months, specifically around Q2 2021.

Oracle has essentially been on hiatus for a year, not able to get on site and pester their customers about license compliance.
Oracle customers have been more cost conscientious than in years past and have been more active in cancelling support for unused products.
The global pandemic has caused many customers to delay or even scrap plans to make new Oracle purchases and/or license expansions.
Because of these conditions, we see a huge, pent up demand inside Oracle for audit activity and believe starting in approximately June 2021, we will see unprecedented levels of Oracle audits inflicted on the commercial markets.
