The "per core" licensing model explained
This model is perfect for external-facing applications and unlimited access.
- Principle: You buy licences for the physical CPU cores in your server. Licences are sold in packs of 2 cores each.
- Minimum licensing: At least 4 cores per physical processor must be licensed. For a server with one CPU, you therefore need at least 2 x "2-core packs".
- The unbeatable advantage: Once all cores in the server are licensed, an unlimited number of users and devices can access SQL Server – without any CALs.
Key features of SQL Server 2016 Standard
- Modern business intelligence (BI): Create modern, mobile reports that display optimally on any device. Benefit from end-to-end BI solutions directly on your server.
- Advanced analytics with R Services: Run complex statistical analyses with the popular R programming language directly in your database, without having to export the data.
- Stretch Database: An innovative hybrid cloud feature that lets you move rarely used "cold" data seamlessly and securely to the Microsoft Azure cloud, reducing local storage costs.
- Improved security: Features such as "Always Encrypted" and "Row-Level Security" protect your sensitive data both at rest and during queries.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly am I buying with this "2 Core" product?
You are buying a licence pack that covers 2 physical CPU cores. As Microsoft requires a minimum of 4 cores to be licensed per processor, you must buy at least 2 of these packs for a server with one CPU.
If I license the cores, do I really not need any CALs?
Exactly, that is the big advantage. Once all physical cores in a server are correctly licensed, you no longer need User or Device CALs to access that SQL Server. Access is unlimited.
Who is this core-based model right for?
This model is ideal for applications with a high or unknown number of users. The classic example is a database running behind a public website or an online shop.
How many 2-core packs do I need for my server with a 12-core processor?
For a 12-core processor, you need 6 x "2-core packs" in total to license all cores and meet the licensing terms.
