    DB means db engine

    CI means case insensitive

    BI means business intelligence

    X64 is for 64 bits

    I have no idea what LT means (maybe has something to do with ETL (SSIS) but that's a big leaping guess here), but also considering the # of downloads, it's probably not the one you want.

    Now you have to decide which one you need depending on your needs.

    My guess is that you'll pick between the first 2 ones.

    The LT files are a "lite" version of the AdventureWorks databases, with a simpler schema and design.
