GLAS VSAM Program
Verified Partners Providing Software Management Solutions
The Oracle GLAS Verified Software Asset Management (VSAM) program was created to redefine the way partners and customers approach their software licensing and management—focusing on a customer-centric and proactive asset management style to help customers optimize their Oracle investments.
