Standard vs. Enterprise edition

SQL Server Standard covers the core database engine, reporting, and analysis features most small and mid-sized applications need. Enterprise edition adds advanced scalability, high-availability, and security features built for large, mission-critical workloads.

Licensing models: Per-Core vs. Server + CAL

SQL Server can be licensed either per physical core on the server, or under a Server + CAL model where you license the server itself plus a Client Access License for each user or device that connects to it. Per-core licensing is usually the better fit for internet-facing or high-user-count applications.

How delivery works
