I need to install the SQL Server 2012 Web Edition on my web server for my web application and I would like to know if I can install the Analysis Services on this edition and create some cubes of my clients data.
Thanks
Looking at this: Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2012 my guess is that it is not supported and that you'll need a different (Enterprise, Business Intelligence or Standard) edition to run analysis Services.

I can't find this answer anywhere and maybe I'm just not getting it. I am installing TFS 2013.3 and I no matter what wizard I choose, there is no option to configure reporting services.
Environments tried:
Windows 7 Enterprise / MS SQL 2012 Express / TFS 2013.3 Express
Windows 8 Professional / MS SQL 2012 Developer / TFS 2013.3 Standard
I am about to try on a Windows Server 2012 SP1 machine shortly in case it has to be a server level machine. I looked on the MSDN for hardware and software support for both SQL/TFS and the above configurations are ok.
Pre-configuration tasks
SQL server pre-installed
SQL configured with Reporting and Analysis services enabled
User to install and configure both SQL and TFS is in the local Admin group
Used both the Basic and Advanced wizards during setup
I'm not sure what I am missing, but it seems that not doing something to be able to use the built in reports. It doesn't look like I need SharePoint for that.
Any ideas?
From MSDN:
You can install Team Foundation Server on a client computer that is
running one of the operating systems in the table. However, client
operating systems do not support integration with SharePoint Products,
reporting, or the ability to run TFS proxy. ...
If you want to use any of these features, you must install Team
Foundation Server on a server operating system.
Emphasis mine.
Since the azure database not support the reporting service anymore, I have to use a reporting service on a sql server running on an azure virtual machine to get the reporting service for my azure websites. The azure websites uses the reporting service web services to provides the report functions to users.
My question is, Can the web edition work for that purpose? Or has to be at least standard edition.
The standard edition even for 1 core costs 410$ per month + the virtual machine cost. Which does not make any sense to me at all, because we only use the reporting services on that sql server running on the virtual machine.
Can web edition reporting service connect to the azure database as the data source?
You need to have Standard Edition or higher for connecting to remote data sources.
In Web Edition Reporting Services only supports connecting to a local Web Edition of SQL Server DbEngine. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993.aspx#Reporting
I have installed Sql Server 2005 Enterprise Edition... It installed just Client Services and Support Files... It did not install Database Engine... Also in SQL Server Configuration Manager->SQL Server 2005 Services and Network Configuration is empty...
What I have to do? Is there any way to install Database Services separately...
I know that Standard and Express Editions install that Database Services also..
But I want to study how to behave when I have installed SQL Server(just server) should I install some client or what?
Can you help me?
Thank you a lot.
You are using windows XP or a home edition of Windows Vista or 7...
SQLServer Enterprise edition does not install database engine on these operations systems, because they are not server os.
You should use Standard Edition that will work for you fine, or change your os !
I'm deploying a web application into a server (hosting company).
The application uses Sql Server 2008 Express Edition as its database.
It seems from the license agreement that this state is ok, as Microsoft says:
"All editions of SQL Server Express are free downloads that can be redistributed subject to agreement. Each edition can function both as the client database and as a basic server database. Any edition of SQL Server Express is an ideal choice for independent software vendors (ISVs), server users, non-professional developers, Web developers, Web site hosts, and hobbyists who are building client applications... "
I didn't see any explicit reference on that case.
Do you have any experience with that issue?
Is there any license problem with that?
No, no licensing problems at all - SQL Server 2008 Express is FREE to use, to deploy, to install - and can be used for any kind of hobbyist or commercial application - no restrictions.
I'm in the process of looking for a dedicated server to host my soon to be released web apps. THey are build with ASP.NEt and uses Sql Server 2005. I've got a great deal with a company for a Intel Core2Quad Q9300 with 8Gb or ram and 750Gb sata.
They offer me Windows 2003 64 Standard or Windows 2008 64 Web for free, which one should I choose?
My main concern is about the database, in the first moment I'm going to have only one box to host both the web and database layer. Will I be able to install SQL Server (initially the express edition, then eventually the standard) on the Web version of Windows 2008?
If you can get Server 2008, i'd go with it because IIS7 is an excellent Upgrade to IIS6.
SQL Server Standard 2008 64-Bit is officially supported on Windows 2008 Web Server. SQL Server Enterprise 2008 64-Bit is NOT (not sure if it does work and is only not listed. 32-Bit Enterprise is listed, but running 32-Bit on a modern server does not sound appealing). See System Requirements here for a full list of SQL Server 2008 Editions and supported Servers.
Not sure about SQL Server 2005, there seems to be a patch needed.
You can run SQL Server on Server 2008 Web Edition (this is a change from Server 2003 Web Edition). The main limitations I am aware of between Web and Standard for 2008 is Web cannot do any kind of virtualization, Active Directory or DNS management, etc. It is intended to be essentially an application server.
I would recommend the newer OS, since it comes with IIS7 and the enhanced TCP/IP (among other things).
If its free, go for the standard version. Here is a comparison of the features:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/compare-features.aspx
I've never noticed any performance differences in the versions, so might as well get features you might use someday. Expensive to upgrade later.
You can run the SQL on either one.
