Ideal Choice for Independent Software Vendors, Consultants, System
Integrators, Solution Providers, and Corporate Developers
Developer
Edition allows developers to build and test any type of application on top of
SQL Server on 32-bit and x64 platforms. It includes all of the functionality of
Enterprise Edition, but is licensed for use as a development and test system,
not as a production server. Developer Edition can be upgraded to SQL Server
Enterprise Edition for production use.
SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition
provides a complete set of enterprise data management and business intelligence
features. Because - like Enterprise Edition - it is optimized to run on x64 and
Itanium-based servers, it is the most scalable and available edition of SQL
Server 2005. Consolidate, cleanse, mine, and integrate data from multiple data
sources. Understand business data in real time with powerful Business Analytics,
OLAP, and Data Mining capabilities.
Empower employees with easy access
to tailored information by using a rich reporting solution. Increase
productivity with a new, easy-to-use management tool, Common Language Runtime
support, and tight integration with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Help protect
data with encryption, more secure default settings, and enhanced permissions
control.
Build and deploy mission-critical applications by using
scalability enhancements such as table partitioning, replication, and 64-bit
support. Increase availability with failover clustering and database mirroring.
Minimize downtime by using online indexing and fast recovery
