So I’m being a little bit of an SEO whore in this post because it took way to many google searches to get this data.
SQL Server 2019 Enterprise Edition—Core Licensing Only–$27, 495/4 cores, $13, 747.50 per additional 2 core packs.
SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition—Core licensing–$7171/4 cores, $3585.50 per additional 2 core packs,
SQL Server 2019 Standard Server plus CAL Licensing-– $898/server (CALs are $170/named user)
I also updated the versions here, but the price hasn’t changed for 2019, and remember you get a lot of cool enterprise features in standard edition.
You should also buy software assurance which costs 23% of your spend, per year.
Thank you for posting the cost.
Thanks so much for posting this, one question please, if i have web application, i have to pay for one CAL for (user ==login) using for application, or i have to pay CALs for all application users?
Thanks for replying
No, you have to pay CALs for all users of your application, hence core based pricing (or cloud DBs) being the better solution for web facing apps.
