SQL Server 2016 Standard License

The SQL Server 2016 Standard license is the best application for application development in your company.

The SQL Server 2016 Standard license ensures core data management and a business intelligence database for departments. It is designed for online transaction processing (OLTP) with scalability and peak performance. It is intended for small organizations to run their applications quickly and efficiently.

It allows for efficient database management with a minimum of IT resources. The Standard edition supports common development tools for managing databases accessible on-premises and in the cloud. Provide insights online or offline. It enables organizations to highlight new business growth opportunities using data in the safest and easiest-to-manage way.

An optimal software to install and develop your server databases

• Proven security: Microsoft SQL 2016 is the least vulnerable database for six consecutive years in the NIST vulnerability database.
• End-to-end mobile BI: Analyze and deliver insights from data on any device, including smartphones and tablets.
• Insider data analysis: Explore data trends directly in SQL Server.
• Hybrid cloud capabilities: Work directly and simultaneously from your desktop, your private cloud, or Microsoft Azure.

A non-exhaustive list of features of the SQL Server 2016 Standard license

• Create intelligent and critical applications for OLTP with a breakthrough in performance, scalability, and availability.
• SQL Server 2016 allows you to protect data in motion and at rest. It’s one of the least vulnerable databases in the NIST vulnerability database.
• Transform your data into actionable insights by delivering insights on any device.
• Use R, the most popular statistical language, to analyze data directly in SQL databases without moving the data.
• The SQL Server 2016 Standard license now includes various options to accelerate queries. Memory-optimized tables now support faster OLTP workloads with better throughput thanks to new Parallelize operations.
• Analysis Service now supports two different modes for faster reporting; tabular and multidimensional. Using the DirectQuery feature generates simpler and more efficient queries than in previous versions.
• Introduction of three main security functions: Row Level Security, Always Encrypted, and Dynamic Data Masking. With innovative client-side encryption, the SQL server instance never sees the unencrypted version of the data.
• Use row-level security to configure which tables users can see. This feature limits the rows that are returned to a user, no matter what application they are using, by automatically applying a predicate to the query.
• Use dynamic data masking to obscure part of sensitive data and specifically allow users to view the unmasked data.
• SQL Server 2016 supports temporal tables, a new standard in ANSI SQL 2011. You can use Transact-SQL to create and query tables related to a specific point in time.
• With the addition of JSON to SQL Server 2016, you can now support both relational and non-relational data structures and choose the model that fits your data workloads and requirements.
• With SQL Server 2016, you can use PolyBase to query data in Azure Blob Storage and Hadoop by combining the results with relational data stored in SQL Server.
• Improvement of Azure SQL databases and enhancement of reporting with support for two new data visualization and parameter presentation options.
