SQL Server Licensing
1 TopicSQL Server Standard - 24 Core Limit - Licensing
Hi Team, Hope you are doing well. I do not want to put up a duplicate question, so please excuse my ignorance, and if this question is already answered, would request you to direct me to the correct link. With SQL Server Standard (Core or Server-CAL model), there is a limit on compute capacity and maximum number of cores should be 24 cores. Would request your help to understand what impact will it have on licensing i.e. do we need to assign such server (assuming running 32 cores) the Enterprise Core edition license? Or do we need to stack SQL Server Standard Core licenses? Appreciate any inputs here.
