Ok I've got a client that has a LOB application eEmpact that is going to be upgraded. This is forcing an upgrade of her server to a Windows 2008 system and SQL 2008.
Not sure at this point if I am going to have to provide the SQL software or if ePmpact is going to. The sever and it's OS are from me. My other clients either had the software provided or had SBS which takes care of that.
This is going to be a 15 user/pc network. The server I am quoting will have 2 Xeon Quad core CPUs. I understand that in 2008 licensing it still based on physical cpu chips and not cores like 2012.
For this setup which licensing mode is most economical? By user or PC or by CPUs? And I am having trouble finding SKU# to correctly do this. Also wondering if SBS is still an option even though it is discontinued.
