    We are looking at setting up a Reporting Server Scale out farm.

    I know for an SSRS scale out Farm you need SQL Server Enterprise Edition, but is it possible to install Windows 2008 R2 Standard Editon on the RS servers with SQL Enterprise on top?

    Finanace want to save on licences...

    Cheers

    Yes you can install SQL 2008 Enterprise on Windows 2008 Standard, there is no problem with that, it then boils down to the resources you require as Windows Standard compared to Windows Enterprise can address different amounts of RAM CPU etc, so if Standard meets your hardware requirements then yes, if not go for Enterprise.
