Microsoft SQL 2022 Standard Device CAL

Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard Device CAL is a Client Access License (CAL) that grants a single device access to a SQL Server instance. Unlike User CALs, which assign access to individual users, the Device CAL licensing model is ideal for organizations where multiple users may share a single device, such as in factories, public kiosks, or shared workstations.

With SQL Server 2022, this CAL model ensures secure, scalable, and high-performance access to enterprise-grade data management features, including real-time analytics, reporting, and seamless cloud integration. The Device CAL is an ideal solution for businesses with fixed-device environments needing multiple users to access SQL Server from the same device.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Cost-Effective Licensing – One Device CAL per device, no need for individual user licenses.
• Comprehensive Data Management – Leverage SQL Server’s advanced features like in-memory OLTP, analytics, and reporting.
• Enterprise-Grade Security – Secure user access and sensitive data with integrated encryption, auditing, and security protocols.
• High Availability & Performance – SQL Server 2022 delivers improved performance, faster queries, and better resource utilization.
• Flexible Deployment – Supports both on-premises and cloud-based environments, with seamless integration to Azure SQL Database and other cloud services.
• Optimized for Shared Devices – Perfect for environments with multiple users sharing a single device, such as workstations or public kiosks.

Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Standard Device CAL is ideal for businesses with shared workstations or fixed devices that require secure, reliable access to SQL Server data without purchasing individual User CALs for each person.
