Limitations of SQL Server Express -


My hosting provider (Rackspace) is offering a fully managed dedicated server with SQL Server Web Edition () installed . My company handles web development, and there are about 20+ customers using ASP.NET + SQL Server 2005.

I'm thinking of cutting costs by setting up a free SQL Server 2008 Express instead. I know about 1 GB RAM and 4GB / database (this is right?) What limits would I like to know:

  1. Is there a limit on the number of databases that I have with the Express Edition Can i install
  2. Beware of any other limitations? I'm a bit worried about setting up a database backup - with the express edition it can be much more difficult.
  3. Any other advice? There are several limitations, especially:

    • bound in the same CPU (in 2012, this limit is near.)
    • 4 GB database size (has been raised) 10 GB SQL 2008 R2 "text-mail" itemprop = "text"
    • And SQL 2012) per database

    Regarding the number of databases, there is no limitation:

    4 GB The size of the database size only applies to data files and to log files No. However, there is no limit to the database that can be attached to the database.

    However, as noted in the comments and above, the database size limit was increased to 10 GB in 2008, R2 and 2012. In addition, this 10 GB limit applies only to relational data , And filestream data does not count this limit ().
