| Licensing SQL Server 2008 R2 |

An overwhelming majority of Microsoft server applications as well as many custom and third-party commercial applications rely on SQL Server's database management, reporting, analysis, and other business intelligence functions. Factors that complicate SQL Server licensing include having to choose between the product line's eight editions (each with their own licensing particularities especially related to virtualization), the option for customers to choose between several different licensing models, and the existence of scenarios where SQL Server licensing is unnecessary.
In this TeleBriefing, Research Chair Rob Horwitz explains the editions, product licenses, licensing rules, and costs for on-premises SQL Server 2008 R2 systems.
