Original License Guaranteed by Licensel.com

Microsoft SQL Server Standard 2019 is the Microsoft relational database management system in the Standard edition, with a perpetual license. It removes the 10 GB limit of the free Express edition and adds SQL Server Agent, Reporting, Integration and Analysis Services. It supports up to 24 cores and 128 GB of memory. The license is delivered with its product key.

Why choose Microsoft SQL Server Standard 2019

SQL Server Express is free and perfectly fine as long as the database stays small. The problem arrives when it passes 10 GB and the business application stops writing, or when a nightly automatic backup is needed and you discover that SQL Server Agent simply does not exist in Express.

The Standard edition solves both: no limit on database size and scheduled job automation included. It also adds the tools for reports, data transfer between systems and analytical models, that is everything needed around the database and not only inside it.

What Microsoft SQL Server Standard 2019 is and what it is for

SQL Server Standard 2019 is the data platform business applications, company software and busy websites rest on. The 2019 generation introduced support for containers and Linux, intelligent query processing and improvements in memory management.

Extended support for this version runs until January 2030. The license covers the database engine on the server: check which licensing mode suits your scenario, because in some cases CALs are also needed for the users or devices that access the data.

Key features

• Databases with no size limit
  Unlike the Express edition, capped at 10 GB, Standard sets no ceiling on the database size.
• SQL Server Agent
  Schedules backups, maintenance and recurring procedures with no external tools: the function Express lacks entirely.
• Reporting Services
  Business reports built on the database data, publishable on a portal and distributable by email.
• Integration Services
  Flows for transferring and transforming data between different systems, schedulable and reusable.
• Analysis Services
  Analytical models and multidimensional cubes for the analyses a tabular report does not cover.
• Backup and compression
  Scheduled backups, backup compression and point-in-time restore.
• Data security
  Encryption, dynamic masking of sensitive data and access control per user and per role.
• Up to 24 cores and 128 GB
  The limit of the Standard edition, enough for most business applications.
