SQL 2008 Editions

  • We have proposal to migrate 2005 to 2008, after checking into MS website the editions looks same as 2005 but wondering if there are any Datacenter editions for warehouse purpose. Our envorinment is a warehouse kind of thing having databases in TB's which keep growing continously.

    What would be the best eidtions for warehouse environment ?

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 has the Data Center Edition which has just rtm'd and will be on May Price Lists. It has unlimited virtualisation, unlimited multi-server management and multi threaded StramInsight baove the other editions. In SQL Server 2008 R2 SQL Server has the same CPU , RAM and virtualisation limits as the equivalent Windows Server, so you should get SQL Server Enterprise edition to run on Windows Enterprise edition and so on.
