Editions overview
The SQL Server 2022 editions align with how customers
are deploying applications and solutions:
• Enterprise Edition is ideal for applications requiring
mission critical in-memory performance, security, and
high availability
• Standard Edition delivers fully featured database
capabilities for mid-tier applications and data marts
SQL Server 2022 is also available in free Developer and
Express editions. Web Edition is offered in the Services
Provider License Agreement (SPLA) program only.
SQL Server 2022 licensing models
SQL Server 2022 offers customers a variety of licensing
options aligned with how customers typically purchase
specific workloads. There are two main licensing models
that apply to SQL Server:
PER CORE: Gives customers a more precise measure of
computing power and a more consistent licensing metric,
regardless of whether solutions are deployed on physical
servers on-premises, or in virtual or cloud environments.
• Core based licensing is appropriate when customers are
unable to count users/devices, have Internet/Extranet
workloads or systems that integrate with external facing
workloads.
• Under the Per Core model, customers license either by
physical server (based on the full physical core count) or
by virtual machine (based on virtual cores allocated), as
further explained below.
SERVER + CAL: Provides the option to license users and/or
devices, with low-cost access to incremental SQL Server
deployments.
• Each server running SQL Server software requires a server
license.
• Each user and/or device accessing a licensed SQL Server
requires a SQL Server CAL that is the same version or
newer – for example, to access a SQL Server 2019
Standard Edition server, a user would need a SQL Server
2019 or 2022 CAL.
• Each SQL Server CAL allows access to multiple licensed
SQL Servers, including Standard Edition and legacy
Business Intelligence and Enterprise Edition Servers.

Licensing for virtualization and
containers
SQL Server 2022 offers use rights for virtual machines and
containers, to provide flexibility for customers’
deployments. There are two primary licensing options for
virtual machines and containers in SQL Server 2022 – the
ability to license individual virtual machines and containers
and the ability to license for maximum densities in highly
virtualized or high-density container environments.
INDIVIDUAL VIRTUAL MACHINES OR CONTAINERS
As hardware capabilities grow, it continues to be more
common for each database to use a fraction of its server’s
computing power. When deploying databases on Virtual
Machines (VMs) or containers that use just a fraction of a
physical server, savings can be achieved by licensing
individual VMs or containers. Licensing SQL Server 2022 by
VM or container is an option under core subscription
licenses or licenses with SA only.
Note: For licensing, Containers follow the same rules as
licensing SQL Server for virtual machines.
Note: When licensing VMs or containers under the Server
+ CAL model, the number of virtual or physical cores does
not affect the number of server licenses required.
•
To license a VM or container with core licenses,
purchase a core subscription license or license with SA
for each virtual core (virtual thread) allocated to the
VM or the number of cores configured for access by
the container (with a minimum of 4 licenses per VM or
container).
•
To license a single VM or container with a server license
(for Standard Edition only), purchase a server license for
each VM or container, and a CAL for each user or device.
•
Each VM or container covered with subscription licenses
or licenses with SA can be moved frequently within a
server farm, or to a third-party hoster or cloud services
provider*, without the need to purchase additional SQL
Server licenses.
*Customers can use Authorized Mobility Partners under licenses with SA (via
License Mobility through SA) or Authorized Outsourcers under subscription
licenses or licenses with SA (via the Flexible Virtualization Benefit). See
https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/terms/productoffering for details.
HIGH-DENSITY VIRTUALIZATION OR CONTAINER
DEPLOYMENT
Further savings can be achieved by licensing SQL Server
high density VM or container deployments. This is a great
option for customers who want to take advantage of the full
computing power of their physical servers and have very
dynamic provisioning and de-provisioning of virtual
resources or container images.

Physical core licensing – Enterprise Edition
•
Customers can deploy an unlimited number of VMs or
containers on the server and utilize the full capacity of
the licensed hardware, by fully licensing the server (or
server farm) with Enterprise Edition core subscription
licenses or licenses with SA coverage based on the
total number of physical cores on the servers.
•
Subscription licenses or SA provide(s) the option to
run an unlimited number of virtual machines or
containers to handle dynamic workloads and fully
utilize the hardware’s computing power.
Virtual core licensing – Standard/Enterprise Edition
• When licensing by virtual core on a virtual OSE
with subscription licenses or SA coverage on all
virtual cores (including hyperthreaded cores) on
the virtual OSE, customers may run any number of
containers in that virtual OSE. This benefit applies
both to Standard and Enterprise Edition.
Licensing for high availability and
Disaster Recovery
SQL Server software can be configured so that if one server
or VM fails, its processing will be picked up, recovered and
continued by another server or VM. Under SQL Server 2022
subscription licenses or licenses with active SA, customers
can use the following passive replicas in conjunction with
their primary workloads in anticipation of a failover event:
•
One passive fail-over replica for High Availability in a
separate server or VM
•
One passive fail-over replica for Disaster Recovery in a
separate server or VM
•
One passive fail-over replica for Disaster Recovery in a
single VM on Azure
These passive fail-over rights apply to workloads running
on a customer’s own servers and workloads a customer
deploys on an Authorized Outsourcer’s servers. Customers
deployed in Azure or with Authorized License Mobility
partners have different passive fail-over rights. See the
Product Terms for details.
Licensing for non-production use
SQL Server 2022 Developer Edition provides a fully featured
version of SQL Server software—including all the features
and capabilities of Enterprise Edition—licensed for
development, test and demonstration purposes only.
Customers may install and run the SQL Server Developer
Edition software on any number of devices. This is
significant because it allows customers to run the software
on multiple devices (for testing purposes, for example)
without having to license each non-production server
system for SQL Server.
A production environment is defined as an environment
that is accessed by end-users of an application (such as an
Internet website) and that is used for more than gathering
feedback or acceptance testing of that application.
SQL Server 2022 Developer Edition is a free product,
available for download at the SQL Server Application
Development site: aka.ms/SQLServerAppDev
Developers can also gain access to SQL Server Developer
through the Visual Studio Dev Essentials program, which
also provides access to many other valuable developer
resources. For more information visit: aka.ms/
