Remote Distributor - MERGE Replication - What Edition of SQL Server is needed

  • With a remote distributor in SQL Server 2014 Merge replication. Does the remote distributor instance need to be at the same edition (Enterprise) as the Publisher? I'm sure I read that it did, but I can't find the link?

    Any help most appreciated

    Don't think so - peer to peer requires all nodes be Enterprise.
    Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2014

    The limits are more often related to mixing versions - maybe you were thinking along those lines:
