About the price of sqlserver
Some people do not quite understand the price of sqlserver, including myself. I consulted a sqlserver salesman before.
This salesman is very enthusiastic. Although I have a very low possibility of purchasing, he is very enthusiastic to explain to me. This kind of sales service attitude is really good.
Let me talk about the information I have consulted from the salesman.
Microsoft's sqlserver products are sold in two ways:
1,Boxed
2,Authorization
1. Boxed: with a CD, bound to the host, cannot be downgraded
2. You are authorized to use the latest version, which can be downgraded without a CD. The price is relatively high.
Host binding means that the software can only be installed on this host.

He said that currently, only sql2012 can be used for purchase authorization, and sql2008r2 or sql2005 can only be used for downgrade.
However, the fee will not be downgraded, that is, only sql2005 functions will be used to pay sql2012, unless you buy a box, buy sql2008r2 boxed version (usually sold in the Computer City)
Note the following when selecting an authorization method:
- For B/S SystemsIt is best to select CPU authorization. Do not select client Authorization. It is the most cost-effective to purchase according to the number of CPUs on your server.
- If it is a C/S system, you can select either a client or a CPU, but it is cheaper to choose a client because there are few connected clients, so you don't need to buy that much.
If you buy CPU authorization, it will be more expensive than client Authorization, if your client is less
I usually download the sqlserver installation image on the msdn website, and then use the virtual optical drive to load the ISO file,
Directly double-click the setup.exe installation, which already comes with the key, but it is pirated, so it is recommended to use sqlserver for learning and not in the production environment.
Msdn I will tell you
