Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard – CSP

Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard (CSP Perpetual License)

Microsoft SQL Server 2022 is the engine that bridges the gap between on-premises performance and cloud flexibility. Available through the CSP (Cloud Solution Provider) program, this license offers businesses a perpetual right to use the software while benefiting from the modern, digital-first management of the CSP ecosystem.

Why Choose the SQL Server 2022 Standard CSP Model?

• Perpetual Ownership: Unlike subscription models, the CSP Perpetual license is a one-time purchase. Once bought, your organization owns the license for that version indefinitely, eliminating recurring monthly fees.

• Azure-Connected Hybrid Cloud: SQL 2022 is built to talk to the cloud. Features like Azure Synapse Link provide near real-time analytics, while the Link feature for Azure SQL Managed Instance ensures business continuity through simplified disaster recovery.

• Intelligent Query Processing (IQP): This version features “next-gen” intelligence that automatically solves common performance bottlenecks. It learns from your specific workloads to optimize query execution without requiring a single line of code change.

• Immutable Ledger Technology: Bring blockchain-level security to your tables. The SQL Server Ledger feature creates a tamper-evident record of all data modifications, making it the ultimate tool for compliance and auditing.

Licensing Flexibility

SQL Server 2022 Standard via CSP is available in two primary models to fit your hardware:

1. Server + CAL: Ideal for smaller organizations where you can count the number of users or devices.

2. Per Core (Sold in 2-Core Packs): Essential for high-traffic or web-facing servers where counting users is impossible.
