[AWS] Simplified Bring-Your-Own-License experience using AWS License Manager

AWS License Manager’s simplified Bring-Your-Own-License (BYOL) experience allows you to effectively govern and manage software licenses, such as Windows and SQL Server, that require a dedicated physical server. You can enjoy the flexibility and cost effectiveness of using your own licenses on Amazon EC2 Dedicated Hosts, but with the simplicity, resiliency, and elasticity of Amazon EC2.

Amazon EC2 Dedicated Hosts allow you to use your existing per-socket, per-core, or per-VM software licenses that are bound to VMs, sockets, or physical cores, subject to your license terms. A host resource group is a collection of Dedicated Hosts that can be managed together as a single entity using your specified preferences. They allow customers to define preferences to automate Dedicated Host management tasks like host allocation, host release, host recovery, and instance placement. They give you flexibility to use your licenses better and the option to designate hosts to be exclusively used by your licenses.
