SQL Server

SQL Server license keys for 2025, 2022 and 2019. Choose Standard or Enterprise for 2025 and 2022; 2019 is available in Standard. Every product is a RETAIL License for 1 server: you enter the key once, when you install SQL Server. Right after your payment is confirmed, we email you a secure link to your license, with your invoice.

Standard or Enterprise? Per Microsoft, Standard uses up to the lesser of 4 sockets or 24 cores per instance (32 in SQL Server 2025), while Enterprise uses the operating system maximum and adds full Always On availability groups and online index operations. Pick the version your application supports, and check the system requirements tab on each product page.
