Can any one brief the difference between MSDN and Developer licensing

We are looking at the licensing for SQL Server for  our development Team. 
The scenario will be a   a common  DB server for entire development team.
MSDN is a user based licensce which doesn't suits for our requirement.
Any help  on this with appropriate licencing will be appreciated 
Thank you
Shahan

Could you please explain difference and limitation between  MSDN and Developer edition
The Developer Edition is available to everybody. It costs
$59.95 in the Microsoft Store. But it's only available to be used in *development and testing* scenarios. You cannot use Developer Edition for production purposes. Developer Edition has equivalent functionality to Enterprise Edition.
Within the MSDN Library there are also media and licenses available for the other editions of SQL Server. These instances, also, are only available for development and testing scenarios, but there are scenarios in which one might wish to *TEST* against a
Standard Edition, Business Intelligence edition , or Enterprise Edition installation rather than a Developer Edition instance.
The MSDN Library subscription is licensed on a per-user basis, so anybody using those three editions (Standard, BI, Enterprise) must also hold an MSDN Subscription, or you must own SQL CALs for those users to use Std/BI/Ent editions.

  • Can any one give the difference

    can any one give the difference
    between normal java class and java bean
    Is every java bean is a java class

    A java bean is a class (always)
    A class does not have to be a java bean:
    For a bean you need to have a no argument constructor
    follow any of the other java bean guidelines/requirements...

  • What's the difference between OEM and standart licensing of VMware vSphere for users?

    Good day,
    Could you please explain me,
    What's the difference between OEM and standart licensing of VMware vSphere for users?

    The difference is usually the support you get. With OEM versions you'll often get support from the OEM and not from VMware directly.

  • Can anybody give me the difference between Catt and Ecatt

    Hi gurus,
    Can any body give me the difference between catt and ecatt.

    Hi,
    I think this is new technology in sap.
    I know little bit of this can u go through this.
    eCATT (extended Computer Aided Test Tool)
    What is eCATT?
    eCATT is an SAP Testing Tool used to automate & test business scenarios in R/3. Each test generates a detailed log that documents the test process and results. If the testing is smooth without any errors, this means that the business scenarios mapped in R/3 are correct. If the test results in error then the problem can be analyzed using the error log that is generated. 
    eCATT enables automatic testing in SAP GUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java.
    Features of eCATT:
    Following functions can be performed using eCATT:
    Test transactions, reports and scenarios.
    Call BAPIs and function modules.
    Test remote systems.
    Check authorizations (user profiles).
    Test updates (database, applications, GUI).
    Set up customizing tables.
    Test the effect of changes to customizing settings.
    Perform load testing.
    Check system messages.
    Integrated with Test Workbench, so allows proper management of scripts using SCAT transaction.
    Supports CATT migration to eCATT.
    All eCATT Objects are Repository Objects. Therefore one can take advantage of Standard SAP Transport Tools.
    eCATT Objects can easily download & upload in XML with XSD format.
    There can be several versions of Test Scripts, which allows different implementations with different releases.
    The separation of Test Scripts, Test Data & System Data allows for a considerable degree of reuse.
    Why eCATT?
    CATT is no longer supported by SAP for the creation of new developments. Hence all the test scripts developed in CATT are now need to migrate/Update to eCATT. Comparative to manual testing, the following are advantages of using eCATT:
    Due to automation, testing time is reduced to a large extent.
    Due to automation, less manpower is required for testing. This helps financially.
    Due to automation, manual errors are reduced to large extent. Hence results in error free testing. This helps, as no further problems will occur while the usage of R/3 system by end users and hence increases the efficiency.
    Proved to be extremely useful in implementation projects.
    In regression testing, automated test scripts are an ideal method of quickly detecting errors. Automatic test logs make it easy to reproduce test results, enabling fast analysis and planning of further activities, leading to cost savings for the customer.
    Differences between CATT and eCATT?
    Till date, CATT could only be used with the R/3 system. eCATT (which is available with SAP Web Application Server 6.20) covers the automatic testing in SAPGUI for Windows and SAP GUI for Java. For other GUIs and Applications, eCATT provides an interface for external tools. This allows companies to perform automated tests from an SAP system in a complete IT solution landscape across system boundaries. These new options enable complete automation of solution landscapes under standard Windows and Web-based user interfaces- resulting in low-cost operation of an IT Solution.
    eCATT (extended Computer Aided Test Tool)
    eCATT requisites
    Web Application Server (WAS) 6.20 or more.
    SAPGUI 6.20 or more.
    R/3 4.6C or more. (Target system must have sufficient support package level (Details available in SAP Note 519858) or SAP R/3 Enterprise Release 4.7).
    Before creating Test Scripts using eCATT, some system settings need to be done: 
    Maintain table T000.
    1.      Go to transaction SM31
    2.      Enter T000 and chose MAINTAIN.
    3.      In the Change View “Clients”: Overview screen, select the relevant client and choose “Details”
    4.      In the “CATT and eCATT Restrictions” field, select “CATT and eCATT allowed”.
    5.      Click on SAVE. 
    Enabling scripting at the Front-end
    1.      On any SAP GUI screen, choose “Customizing of Local Layout”.
    2.      Choose Options
    3.      Choose “Scripting Tab”
    4.      Select “Enable Scripting”
    5.      Click Apply and then OK. 
    Enabling Scripting on the Application Server
    1.      Go to transaction RZ11.
    2.      On the Maintain Profile Parameters screen, enter sapgui/user_scripting.
    3.       Choose Display.
    4.      If the Current Value is not set to TRUE, then click on Change Value:
    5.      Enter TRUE in the “New Value”.

  • What is the difference between skewness and cardinlaity

    Can any one explain the difference between skewness and cardinlaity.
    Thanks

    cardinality means the distinct values in a column and skewness means how the data is spreaded according to those distinct values. Means Let say there are 100 rows in a table and the distinct values are 2 i.e. 1 and 0. This distinct values are the cardinality and in this case cardinality is low. Now let say out of 100 records there are 99 1s and 1 0s, or 50 1s and 50 0s, this shows how the data is spreaded and this is skewness.

  • What's the difference between trace and log in XI?

    Hi all,
    On both J2EE and ABAP, there are both tracing and logging functionalities. Can anyone explain me the difference between trace and logging?
    Regards,
    Hui

    From SAP Notes
    Log file:
    A log file contains generally intelligible information for system administrators. The information is sorted by categories and is used for system monitoring. Problem sources or critical information about the status of the system are logged in this file. If error messages occur, you can determine the software component that has caused the error using the location. If the log message does not provide enough details to eliminate the problem, you can find more detailed information about the error in the trace file.
    The log file is located in the file system under
    "/usr/sap/[SID]/[instance]/j2ee/cluster/server[N]/log/applications.[n].log" for every N server node.
    Access the file with the log viewer service of the J2EE visual administrator or with the standalone log viewer.
    Trace file:
    A trace file contains detailed information for developers. This information can be very cryptic and extensive. It is sorted by location, which means by software packages in the Java environment, for example, "com.sap.aii.af". The trace file is used to analyze runtime errors. By setting a specific trace level for specific locations, you can analyze the behavior of individual code segments on class and method level. The file should be analyzed by SAP developers or experienced administrators.
    The trace file is located in the file system under
    "/usr/sap/[SID]/[instance]/j2ee/cluster/server[N]/log/defaultTrace.[x].trc" for each N server node.
    Access the file with the log viewer service of the J2EE visual administrator or with the standalone log viewer.

  • What's the difference between green_threads and native_threads?

    Hi,Java gurus
    Can you tell me the difference between green_threads and native_threads of Sun's JVM implementation for Linux?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Justine

    Green threads are 'user mode' threads and are not implemented directly by the OS's threads but simulated. Native threads are implemented (or at least backed by) native OS threads.
    Green threads can be more efficient, but cannot take advantage of multiple processors and some operations may effectively block all green threads in a process when the native thread that is shared between them all gets blocked in the kernel.
    Later versions of Java have tended to drop support for green threads in favor for the greater capabilities of native threads. The tradeoff is mostly acceptable.

  • Can any one tell me the difference between VK11 and MR21

    Hi Folks,
    I have changed price of a material using VK12.
    When I go to the transaction MR21, it is still showing the old price.
    Can any one help what is the difference between VK11 and MR21.
    And i which scenarios these two were used?
    Thanks in Advance
    Gopi Krishna

    Hii,
    VK11: This is price master record to determine the sale price or discounts or freight or taxes which we going to charge to the final customer.  Through this transaction we will determine the price automatically either in sales or billing document.  These transaction is only applicable for sales & distribution module for determining the pricing for customers.
    The price determined through this we use in revenue realisation.
    MR21: Through this trnsaction Finance or Cost users upload the cost of the material.  The cost is
    Standard Cost or Moving average cost.
    Cost= Raw Material CostProcessing Cost(product process cost )Overheads(employee salaries)
    This cost is maintained at each material master in accounting view either standard cost or moving average cost.
    These cost is determined for every material movement within the company.
    Example: Production, transfer posting, goods issue- system post the quantity and at the same time system create an inventory entry i.e accounting entry for the transaction.  In this accounting entries, system consider the values from material master for generating accounting entry.
    If you upload production for 10 MT of material A and in material master if kept the cost of the material as 1000 then the accounting entry in production time as
                  Finish Goods Dr          10000
                            To Cost of Production Cr        10000
    These cost also determined sales transaction through VPRS condition type.

  • Could any one tell me what is the difference between swfloader and module loader?

    Hi  All,
                          Could any one tell me what is the difference between SWFLoader and Module Loader in Flex3 in detail?

    Hi,
    ModuleLoader is a kind of strange API that is really just intended to look like SwfLoader for modules that contain a single visual component, and hides most of the module loading infrastructure, which is all about class factories.
    What I mean by "only loaded once" is that if you have several places in the code that call the ModuleManager.getModule("url").load() call, it will only ever get loaded over the wire and interpreted once, subsequent "loads" will just re-dispatch pseudo-load events to the new client.  In other words, the class factory is a singleton for a given url. Unloading is a totally different story.  As you note, not everything is truly unloadable, because there may be lots of references to stuff in
    the module that will keep it alive and un-GC'ed.
    I suggest playing with the low-level API so that you understand the backing implementation, and this should help you understand the limits of ModuleLoader.
    The main difference between modules and applications is that modules have lower overhead, and they only ever get loaded once, no matter how many times you load them. If you're using the ModuleLoader API, keep in mind that you're losing about half the functionality of the module system.  I will assume that you are, because otherwise it would be obvious where to expose methods.  You might want to play around with the lower level ModuleManager API just to get a hang of what's going on - ModuleLoader is a pretty thin veneer over the lower API.                
                    Basically, what you want to do is to have your module implement an interface, say IModuleWhatever.
    Also try and refer to this link which was previously discussed in this forum..
