Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard (core licence): the cloud-connected database for unlimited users

Connect your on-premises data seamlessly to the cloud and scale without user limits with Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard, licensed under the flexible core-based model. This licence type is the first choice for websites, online shops and any application with a large, unknown or unlimited number of users. Benefit from the deepest Azure integration yet and the key advantage: no separate Client Access Licences (CALs) are required. You license the power of your server and enjoy maximum freedom. Buy your core licences here as a perpetual licence with no time limit from Vollversion-Software.

The "per core" licensing model explained

This option gives you maximum flexibility for any scenario with many or unknown users.

  • 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".
  • No CALs needed: 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 2022 Standard

  • Azure Synapse Link: Run real-time analytics on your operational data directly from SQL Server in Azure Synapse Analytics, without affecting the performance of your database.
  • Azure Active Directory authentication: Enable modern, secure authentication of your users via the cloud.
  • Ledger for SQL Server: Create tamper-proof data integrity with blockchain technology. Ideal for auditing and compliance requirements, to prove that data has not been altered.
  • Intelligent Query Processing (next generation): Enjoy a significant performance boost, as the database engine optimises queries automatically – with no changes to application code.
  • Platform independence: Run your SQL Server 2022 instance on Windows, Linux or in Docker containers for maximum flexibility.

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.

What is the "Ledger" feature in SQL Server 2022?

Ledger is an innovative security feature that creates cryptographic proofs (similar to a blockchain) to ensure the integrity of your data. It lets you prove that your data has not been tampered with since it was recorded, which is crucial for audits and compliance requirements.

How many 2-core packs do I need for my server with a 16-core processor?

For a 16-core processor, you need 8 x "2-core packs" in total to license all cores and meet the licensing terms.
