What is Microsoft SQL Server?
Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that supports a wide variety of transaction processing, business intelligence, and analytics applications in enterprise computing environments. Microsoft SQL Server is one of the three leading database technologies, along with Oracle Database and IBM DB2.
SQL is a special-purpose programming language designed to manage data in a relational database management system. A database server is a computer program that provides database services to other programs or computers, as defined by the client-server model. Therefore, a SQL Server is a database server that implements Structured Query Language (SQL).
SQL Server Standard or Enterprise?
Microsoft SQL Server licenses for businesses are available in two versions: Enterprise Edition and Standard Edition.
Microsoft SQL Server Standard provides all of the fundamental database, reporting, and analysis capabilities. It also includes basic availability features and disaster recovery. SQL Server Enterprise will provide all of the functionality of Standard, plus the ability to aggregate up to eight nodes and perform asynchronous mirroring.
SQL Server 2014, 2016, 2017 or 2019?
Make sure you purchase a version of SQL Server that receives sufficient support from Microsoft. This concerns standard support (updates) and extended support (security). Basic support, that is, standard support, ends first.
For Microsoft SQL Server, the expiration date schedule is as follows:
| Version | Standard support expiration | Expiration of extended support |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft SQL Server 2008 | Expired | Expired |
| Microsoft SQL Server 2012 | Expired | 06/12/2022 |
| Microsoft SQL Server 2014 | Expired | 06/09/2024 |
| Microsoft SQL Server 2016 | Expired | 06/14/2026 |
| Microsoft SQL Server 2017 | 10/11/2022 | 10/12/2027 |
| Microsoft SQL Server 2019 | 1/14/2025 | 1/8/2030 |

CALs for Microsoft SQL Server
What is a CAL license? The acronym CAL refers to ‘Client Access License‘ and describes a license that allows its client (the business owner) to give access to Microsoft SQL Server licenses like 2016, 2017 or 2019 to the users or devices of the company . For this, the customer has the choice between three options:
What is a User CAL license?
The User CAL license means that you pay for each user who has access to the services through the server. For example, if one of your employees is a user who needs to access the server through their laptop, iPad, smartphone and / or PC, that user needs a User CAL license. The latter can be purchased in addition to the Server license.
What is a Device CAL license?
Device CAL license means that you pay for each device that has access to services through the server. This is advantageous if you only want to use the license on one device or if you have more devices than users because in the latter case the license is cheaper.
What are Remote Desktop Services (RDS) CALs?
The third type of CAL license is the RDS (Remote Desktop Services) CAL which refers to external desktop services. It is also called an “external server CAL”.
These licenses are in principle intended for administrators or employees who must have remote access to the servers. For example, employees who work in the office but also wish to work from home (remotely).
Note: CALs are NOT included with Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise or Standard licenses and must be purchased separately.
