Features

Description

Microsoft SQL Server 2025 Standard 24 Core Licence Microsoft SQL Server 2025 Standard is a powerful relational database platform designed for businesses that need reliable data management, application database services, security, reporting and analytics. Built for professional and business environments, SQL Server enables organisations to securely store, organise, process and retrieve large volumes of information while providing the database foundation required by many ERP, CRM, accounting, e-commerce, line-of-business and custom applications.

This package provides licensing for 24 cores under the Per Core licensing model. With Per Core licensing, separate SQL Server Client Access Licences (CALs) are not required for users or devices accessing the appropriately licensed SQL Server environment. What Does Microsoft SQL Server Do? SQL Server acts as a central database platform for storing and managing business information.

Applications can connect to SQL Server to read, write and process data, allowing organisations to centralise important information rather than storing it independently on individual computers. SQL Server can be used for applications and workloads such as: Business and line-of-business application databases ERP and CRM systems Accounting and financial applications Inventory and warehouse management Customer and employee databases E-commerce and web applications Reporting and analytics Data processing and integration Internally developed business applications Centralised organisational databases Key Features Professional Database Management Create and manage relational databases for business applications, services and organisational information using Microsoft's established SQL Server platform.

It uses Microsoft's Per Core licensing model, rather than the Server + CAL licensing model.

No SQL Server CALs Required With the Per Core licensing model, you do not need to purchase a separate SQL Server CAL for every user or device accessing the appropriately licensed SQL Server. This makes Per Core licensing particularly useful for environments with: Large numbers of users Large numbers of connected devices Changing numbers of employees or users Customer-facing applications Web-based applications Multiple applications accessing the same database server Environments where managing individual CALs would be impractical The underlying physical or virtual environment must still be correctly licensed according to Microsoft's applicable SQL Server
