Description

Microsoft SQL Server 2 Core 2025 Standard Volume Licence

With SQL Server 2025 Standard, Microsoft is expanding its well-established database platform to include new AI-powered features,
greater performance headroom and targeted performance optimisations. The Standard edition is aimed at organisations looking to modernise
their SQL infrastructure and scale it to cope with growing data volumes and increasing demands.
Whether it’s document management, CRM, ERP, inventory management or bespoke business applications – SQL Server 2025 Standard
provides a robust foundation for business-critical processes.

Integrated AI features and semantic search
SQL Server 2025 enhances the traditional database with modern AI features. Semantic search and vector data processing make it possible
to analyse content not only by keywords but also by meaning. This opens up new possibilities, such as intelligent search functions,
similarity analyses or AI-powered applications that can be utilised directly within the existing database structure.

Noticeable performance gains compared to previous versions
With support for up to 32 CPU cores and 256 GB of RAM, SQL Server 2025 Standard significantly raises the performance limits of the previous version
(2019 Standard: maximum of 24 cores). As a result, SQL Server 2025 Standard handles even large volumes of data with ease and remains highly responsive,
even with many concurrent accesses. The improved query optimisation also speeds up complex database queries. At the same time, more efficient backup c
ompression reduces storage requirements and backup times.

State-of-the-art security
With support for TLS 1.3, improved password hashing methods and enhanced security mechanisms, SQL Server 2025 Standard meets the latest
data protection and compliance requirements. Sensitive business data remains reliably protected.

High availability for day-to-day operations
Proven high-availability features and optimised recovery mechanisms help to minimise downtime.
The system remains stable even under heavy load – a crucial factor for productive business processes.

Long-term investment security
Microsoft has defined a long-term support period for SQL Server 2025. Security updates will be provided as part of extended support until 6 January 2036.
Organisations will therefore receive regular security updates over many years and can operate their database environment securely in the long term.
