I´m currently evaluating the adquisition of a MSSQL 2012 standard edition license, however this is my problem:
I'll have around 100 different users logging through the same application on the same server (RDP), so the server will see 100 connections with the same login and host + 1 management user which could be on different devices.
The hardware is not new so we'll be using a 2 core xeon
because the sql server will get 2 different logins, I should get:
(898) Server licence +<br />
(418) 2 CAL user licences <br />
(1316) Total <br />
is this right?, or the server will see:
(898) Server licence +<br />
(209) 1 CAL device licences <br />
(209) 1 CAL user licences <br />
(1316) Total <br />
or:
(898) Server licence +<br />
(209) 1 CAL device licences <br />
(20,900) 100 CAL user licences <br />
(22,207) Total <br />
which would be excessive and i better go for a core license model and get:<br />
(7,172) a 4 core licensing model
Can you guys point towards more information on the license model i should go for?, thanks in advance.
