Benefits of SQL Server Over Previous Editions
HOSTWAY CONFIDENTIAL & PROPRIETARY
Benefits of SQL Server 2012
Reason 1 – End of Life (2000)
Reason 2 – New SQL Server 2012 Licensing options
Reason 3 – Upgrade Paths (Who doesn’t like options)
Reason 4 – SQL Server 2012 is Awesome!!!
• Full implementation of the BI suite, and it is simple to implement security, auditing and encryption as well as virtualization capabilities.
• The refined interface. Most people only use a small portion of the SQL product. But put the whole SQL suite together, Database, SSAS, SSRS, SSIS, Data Mining, integration to SharePoint, Excel 2010, and Power Pivot –and it’s seamless and consistent.– And those are the best reasons of all – Seamless and Consistent.
If you’re thinking about a migration or new implementation, Databerry is here to help!
