@Francisco do you do MSSQL?
Express is free unless you need something else.

I guess Express edition will do. Can you PM me test IP for your London and Amsterdam Location ?.
Can anyone offer Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Standard Edition ?.
SPLA license prevents using old versions of software for new deployments.
I see. So what are my options? A client needs Standard edition. It would be best if you could offer something.
SPLA pricing is around £140 per physical core in the machine, not in the VM. In our case we're looking at 20 cores.
Does the Customer have a budget for that ?
Cheapest option would be an i3 dedicated server with 2 cores, but that's about £300 MRC, before VAT in license cost alone. You need Windows on top of that. And a server.
Oh, I didn't know how their licensing works. I was hoping it would be around $50 MRC on top of the server bill.
