Hi

That does sound about right. If the SQL Engine has the compression built in then it would be crazy to have diffirent versions or limitations based on the edition.

But yes having data compression on the fly when storing data to the datafile is still seen as a new exciting feature and would more than likely be a selling feature for Enterprise edition.

But the good news is that this technology now exists and it should eventually become a standard feature for all editions - we just hope that this does not take too lon to get to us.
