Installed Software
License registration is handled by GoGrid. GoGrid owns the license to this operating system and database software and Microsoft does not require any further action from GoGrid users to register the OS or database installed on this server.
Standard Edition is the data management and analysis platform for small and medium-sized organizations. It includes the essential functionality needed for e-commerce, data warehousing, and line-of-business solutions. Standard Edition's integrated business intelligence and high-availability features provide organizations with the essential capabilities needed to support their operations.
Cost
Microsoft SQL 2005 Standard requires a licensing fee of $249.99 per month. This charge is not pro-rated, therefore when a Microsoft SQL 2005 Standard database is deployed (even if only for a moment), you will incur the cost of the licensing fee for the entire month. You will be notified of this when attempting to deploy this image. This software is pre-registered and owned by GoGrid. Users cannot remove this license or re-use it somewhere else.
