The latest version of Microsoft’s relational database management system, Microsoft SQL Server 2016, was released on June 1, 2016, and introduced several improvements compared to previous versions. It is designed for building intelligent, mission-critical applications for online transaction processing (OLTP) on a scalable hybrid data platform. The system includes in-memory performance, enhanced security features, and advanced analytics capabilities that can be executed directly within the database. Data analysis is supported using the popular statistical language R.
Business Intelligence (BI) refers to methods used for the systematic analysis of electronic data. The goal is to generate insights that support better operational and strategic decisions within a company. With the platform provided by SQL Server 2016, BI capabilities can be implemented across the entire organization and made available wherever needed.
The platform includes several services and tools, such as:
The 2016 release introduced a range of improvements that simplify working with Microsoft’s database platform. In-memory OLTP was significantly enhanced, removing many of the limitations present in earlier versions. In addition, support for the JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format was added, making development more flexible.
New built-in features such as Dynamic Data Masking, Row-Level Security, and Always Encrypted further strengthen data protection. Previously, these capabilities were only available through third-party solutions.
In addition to SQL Server 2016 Standard, we also offer the appropriate access licenses. These are available as Device CALs (Client Access Licenses) or User CALs and can be downloaded quickly and easily.
Alternatively, businesses can choose a core-based licensing model such as SQL Server 2016 Standard 2 Core, where no CALs are required and the number of users or devices is unlimited.
