Why SQL Server Enterprise Edition? SQL Server 2005/2008 Enterprise has more than 60 exclusive features that build on the Standard edition SQL Server 2005 Enterprise SQL Server 2008 Enterprise (SQL Server 2005 Enterprise plus the following) Availability Manageability & Security o Hot-add CPU support o Database mirroring asynchronous o Common Criteria Compliance o Resource Governor o Fast recovery o Virtual Interface Adapter (VIA) support o Backup compression o Database Snapshots Transparent data encryption Integration o o Online page & file restores o Fuzzy lookup/grouping transformations o Third-party key management o Differed transactions o Term extraction and term lookup transformations o Security auditing o Online index operations o Dimension & partition processing adapters o Change Data Capture o Parallel index operations o Data mining enhancements o 16-node failover clustering o > 2-node failover clustering o Online configuration of peer-to-peer nodes Analysis o Proactive caching o Data compression Scalability & Performance o Table and index partitioning o Partitioned cubes o Start join query optimization o > 4-processor support o Perspectives o Data profiling tools (SQL Server Integration o Hot-add memory support o Semi-additive measures Services) o Persistent high-performance lookup (SQL o > 16-instance support o Account intelligence Server Integration Services) o Scalable shared databases o Full writeback support o Indexed views o Compressed and binary XML support o Parallel DBCC o Cross-database/server linked dimensions & measures o Updateable distributed partitioned views Data Mining o Advanced scanning o Time series cross prediction o Data mining algorithm extensibility Replication o Peer-to-peer replication o Unlimited concurrent data mining queries o Oracle publishing o Unlimited # of attributes for association rules o Prediction & processing enhancements for data mining models Virtualization o Unlimited virtualization licensing

Why High Availability? • Businesses need to work around the clock to meet customer demands • When systems are not running, businesses are losing revenue, opportunities, customers, and reputation • Reduces impact of required maintenance on day-today operations • Helps to protect against disasters Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Clustering 2-node 16-node Database mirroring Synchronous Synchronous and asynchronous Automatic page repair Online operations Live migration Hot-add memory and CPU Peer-to-peer replication

Why Scalability and Performance? • Use hardware and software resources more efficiently to reduce costs • Flexibility to address the need for more capacity • Predictable response times reduce user frustration and support costs Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition CPU support 4 8 Multiple-instance support 16 instances More instances Maximum virtualization Data compression Backup compression Table partitioning Partitioned table parallelism Parallel index operations StreamInsight (serial processing)

Why Security? • Prevent unauthorized access to data • Protect against lost or stolen backup data • Audit access to ensure proper use Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Common Criteria Certification Data encryption Limited Transparent Data Encryption External key management SQL Server Audit C2-compliant tracing

Why Manageability? • Reduce the cost to administer servers • Efficiently use resources • Back up data for disaster recovery Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Application and multi-server management Table partitioning Resource Governor Mirrored backup

Why Data Warehouse? • Enable reporting across large amounts of data • Align decisions and actions with business goals Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Change data capture High speed connectors Data compression Backup compression Star join optimizations Partitioned cubes Data-driven report subscriptions Master data services PowerPivot

Why Business Intelligence? • Provide up-to-date data to all employees to enable intelligent decision-making • Align decisions and actions with business goals • Improve organizational agility Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Scalable shared databases Partitioned cubes Proactive caching Parallel model processing Advanced analytics functions Scale-Out report deployment Data-Driven subscriptions Infinite Clickthrough in Ad-Hoc Reports

How to save storage, hardware and administration costs? • Reduce storage costs • Reduce the number of servers • Decrease cost per node in a database cluster Technology Standard Edition Enterprise Edition Maximum virtualization Application and multi-server management Database compression, including UCS-2 16-node clusters
