I was recently asked question about SQL Server 2008 pricing. I have bookmarked official site here which lists the pricing.
Official site: What’s New in SQL Server 2008 R2 Editions
| Editions | Per Processor PricingRetail | Per Server Plus CAL PricingRetail |
|---|---|---|
| Parallel Data Warehouse | $57,498 | Not offered via Server CAL |
| Datacenter | $57,498 | Not offered via Server CAL |
| Enterprise | $28,749 | $13,969 with 25 CALs |
| Standard | $7,499 | $1,849 with 5 CALs |
However, I have bookmarked following site of Brent Ozar SQL Server 2008 R2 Pricing and Feature Changes. I think Brent has answered one very interesting question there that SQL Server R2 is FREE for only who has purchased software assurance.
I really would like to know if your organization is upgrading to SQL Server 2008 R2. Please leave your comment here.
