Dynamics NAV - SQL Server 2008 Runtime License

A while ago, I posted a blog about the SQL Server 2005 Runtime license. Well, recently I received the news that Microsoft created a Runtime License for SQL Server 2008 with Dynamics NAV as well (available from 1st of Januari 2009). If you have access to partnersource, you can get more info here. There you can find a FAQ-PDF, which explains a lot.

Important to know is that there is 64-bit support now (when there was none in the previous version) … and it's the same price then the 32-bit version. It's even on the same CD.

I have the impression that the "restrictions" and pricing is quite the same as before, but please, get yourself properly informed before you're starting to sell the Runtime license! Just know that it has become a lot more interesting now, because of the 64-bit support Smile.

Customers need to review their licensing options for both SQL and server operating systems and select the option that fits their situation the best.  While one option may have a cheaper initial purchase it may not be the cheapest in the long run as the system is updated and expanded.  In my experience there is not "one size fits all" solution.

True ... and don't get me wrong.  I'm not really a "runtime license"-fan myself..  I would rather keep all options open at all times.
