WEBCON Standalone with SQL Web Edition

1

Hi Adam,
I work with Webcon based on SQL Web edition and it works without any problem.

Dear Damian,
Thanks for your reply. If you can share such information, please tell me do you use it (i) as a production environment; (ii) in Azure? With such an approach a lot of money can be saved (license cost difference between standard and web edition is significant).

Regards.

Ask your MS Partner about licensing model first, please.

As I know (https://docs.microsoft.com/answers/storage/attachments/96089-sql-server-2019-licensing-guide.pdf) SQL Server Web Edition remains available only under the Microsoft Services Provider License Agreement (SPLA) (but I am not a MS Licensing guru).

Technically SQL Web Edition is good to small and medium installation.

Dear Pawel,
Thanks for your feedback here. I will send a question to our MS Partner about licensing SQL Web Edition. But as I want to run it in Azure environment MS is SPLA partner here :) Due to complexity in Microsoft licensing it is worth having confirmation from them.

Yeah, I assume that an environment with less than two hundred users and less than twenty processes fit in "small to medium installations" :)

As soon as I get any response from Microsoft about it, I will share my knowledge here.

All the best!
