Cloud Computing – SQL Server 2012 Cloud Ready Information Platform – Free Licensing Webinars

  • Artigo

SQL Server 2012 is a significant product release, providing Mission Critical Confidence with greater uptime, fast performance and enhanced security features for mission critical workloads; Breakthrough Insight with managed self-service data exploration and interactive data visualisation capabilities; Cloud On Your Terms by enabling the creation and extension of solutions across on-premises and public cloud. SQL Server 2012 is a Cloud Ready Information Platform.

 The SQL Server 2012 Editions have been streamlined to better align with how customers are deploying applications and solutions. SQL Server 2012 will be released in 3 main editions:

  • Enterprise for mission critical applications and large scale data warehousing
  • Business Intelligence, a new product edition, providing premium corporate and self-service BI
  • Standard for basic database, reporting and analytics capabilities

SQL Server 2012 will continue to offer two licensing options – one that is based on computing power, and one that is based on users or devices. In the computing power-based licence model, however, the way we measure power will shift from processors to cores. Core-based licensing provides a more precise measure of computing power given high core-density server hardware. It also provides a more consistent licensing metric regardless of where the solution is deployed across on-premises to cloud.
