How does the 16-core licence cover my database infrastructure?

This licensing model is designed to directly safeguard the computing power of your database server. With the 16-core package, you can either licence a physical host with up to 16 cores or distribute the capacity across virtual instances. The key advantage: core-based licensing already includes unlimited access (users/devices), which completely eliminates the need to manage access licences.

What are the technical performance limits for SQL 2022 Standard Edition?

SQL Server 2022 Standard is optimised for high performance but, unlike the Enterprise Edition, utilises system-level limits. It supports up to 128 GB of RAM per instance and utilises a maximum of 24 cores or 4 sockets. With the 16-core licence, you can utilise a large proportion of this capacity, which provides an ideal performance foundation for most medium-sized business applications and ERP systems.

Why is core licensing beneficial for web applications and portals?

As soon as you provide database services for external users, online shops or portals, Core licensing is the only legally compliant option. As the number of users accessing the system often cannot be precisely quantified, the Core licence provides blanket cover for all access. This eliminates the risk of under-licensing and offers you a transparent cost structure without additional CAL costs.

Does this 2022 licence provide protection for NIS-2-regulated infrastructures?

Yes. The 2022 version offers enhanced security features such as the SQL Server Ledger, which creates a tamper-proof history of data changes. In conjunction with our comprehensive compliance documentation (chain of custody), you can demonstrate both technical data integrity and legally compliant software procurement, as required by the NIS 2 Directive.
