MICROSOFT SQL SERVER 2019 STANDARD

Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard: The Intelligent and Cost-Efficient Data Platform

Take your data management and business intelligence to the next level with Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Standard. This edition is the perfect choice for small to medium-sized businesses and individual departments that need a robust, secure, and feature-rich database solution without the budget of the Enterprise version.

SQL Server 2019 Standard is far more than just a database. It is a comprehensive data platform that provides you with the tools to analyze data, create reports, and benefit from intelligent query processing that automatically improves the performance of your applications.

Why SQL Server 2019 Standard is the perfect choice:

• Intelligent Performance out-of-the-box: Benefit from Intelligent Query Processing (IQP) which accelerates your database queries, often without you having to change a single line of code.
• Comprehensive Business Intelligence (BI): Utilize the full functionalities of SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) and Reporting Services (SSRS) to create meaningful reports and multidimensional data models.
• Basic Data Virtualization: Use PolyBase to run queries on external data sources like Oracle or MongoDB and integrate data without physically moving it.
• Proven Security: Protect your data with industry-leading security features such as data classification, auditing, and Transparent Data Encryption (TDE).
• Flexible Licensing Options: Choose the licensing model that best suits your environment – be it the scalable Per Core model or the cost-efficient Server + CAL model.

Licensing Explained: Which Model Suits You?

The Standard edition offers two primary licensing models:

• Server + CAL (Client Access License): Ideal for environments with a known, limited number of users or devices. You purchase a license for the server and an additional access license (CAL) for each user (User CAL) or each device (Device CAL).
• Per Core: The best choice for web-based applications, workloads with an unknown number of users, or when using high-performance servers. Here, you license all physical processor cores of the server (at least 4 cores per processor).

Standard vs. Enterprise: The Decisive Difference

While the Standard edition offers an enormous range of functionalities for most business requirements, the Enterprise Edition is designed for mission-critical applications with the highest demands on performance and availability. Enterprise offers exclusive features such as Big Data Clusters, advanced high-availability solutions (e.g., multi-site clusters), and unlimited virtualization.

Who is SQL Server 2019 Standard ideal for?

• Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs): As a central database system for ERP, CRM, and industry applications.
• Web Developers: As a reliable backend for data-intensive websites and web applications.
• Departments in Large Enterprises: For specific projects and BI solutions that do not require the full Enterprise license.
