1. The Standard Edition is a good tool A better deal is buying the MSDN Universal Edition. Its price isn't much higher and it includes SQL Server 2000 plus the latest release of Windows XP, Windows 2000, all the .NET development tools, all of the servers, just about every Microsoft product that's not a game. And each month Microsoft will send update discs that include new versions, service packs and beta versions.

   A really good choice if you are a developer. As an MCSE and MCDBA this is my tool of choice.

1. this product is terrible. the studio graphical tools are very poor and smp support is not so good.



2. The data mining is really cool for data warehousing. No one else has this stuff right now.



3. Don't take my word for it, I'm biased. Check out the independent performance and price/performance figures at the Transaction Processing Council's site, www.tpc.org. SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition simply blows the competition out of the water. For both performance and price, no other solution makes business or technical sense on the Windows platform. I've used this product in production and development since the beta 1 release (that's how stable it is, even then) back in mid-December 1999, and I can only say that it is reliable, very, very fast, highly scalable and easy to administer. Plus, independent productivity assessments have shown it is 3-4 times faster to get something done in SQL Server than it's nearest rival. That's a lot of consultancy bills saved! I've been a Senior DBA/Software Project Manager for seven years now, and I'd not even consider another relational database system now, because nothing gets even close. A mature product which gets better with every release.

1. In my mind, one of the best .NET Server products Microsoft has produced to date. It makes full use of both Network Load Balancing and Component Load Balancing to give the Windows 2000 Server server-farm awesome stability and uptime. Uploading content is super easy, as is the day-to-day management of the server farm. If you are using Windows 2000 Server for a server farm and want increased reliablity and up-time, get this product!
