How many CPUs needed

  • Hi,

    How many CPUs needed for a SQL Server instance as per best practice?

    We have VMWare virtual server for SQL Server.

    Is it OK to have one virtual cpu for development sql server instance?

  • Depends on the workload. There is absolutely no way to answer that question in a useful way.
