It's in their interest to sell you the most expensive package.Wed, 05 Sep 2012 10:02:20 GMTderek.colleyhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1354690-391-1.aspxHi AllI have what seemingly is a pretty basic query however dont seem to beable to get a definative answer (the licencing company we have seem to think Web Edition doesn't exist)I am currently working on a solution for a small company so costs are watched quite closely.We have what is essentially a reporting and configuration type web front end open to our clents sitting in the cloud on a SQL Database. This database is going to be fed partly by data from remote databases (SQL Express/via entity framework) sitting on client sites (its a monitoring set up).What I cant figure out is can I use Web Edition for this? It's not doing anything particularly fancy, just storing data for the webpage.Obviously this has large cost implications, whether we can use Web Edition, or have to get a CPU/Core License with Standard Edition.Unfortunatly cant use express on the cloud due to db sizeAny pointers would be helpfulThanks in AdvanceJackWed, 05 Sep 2012 09:43:41 GMTJohnJack
