SQL Server Editions for Columnstore Indexes

I am trying to find out what editions of SQL Server 2012 will allow the use of columnstore indexes.  Can I create and use columnstore indexes on the standard edition or do I have to have the BI or Enterprise editions?
Lee Markum

Column store index is supported only in SQL Server Enterprise edition.

  • SharePoint 2013 SQL Server Edition for BI Features - must be on SharePoint SQL Server?

    I need to install SQL Server 2012 for a new SharePoint 2013 installation.
    Let's say I want to use the BI features of SharePoint 2013 like PowerView.
    I already have a separate SQL Server running SQL Server 2012 BI Edition that is used as the database server for our data warehouse and some apps.  But this SQL Server will not be used to house the SharePoint 2013 databases.
    Do I need to install SQL Server 2013 BI Edition on the SharePoint 2013 SQL Server (where the SharePoint 2013 databases will be housed) or can I used SQL Server 2013 Standard Edition on that server and utilize the BI Edition on the data warehouse server to
    use the BI features of SharePoint?

    Yes, BI or Enterprise must be installed on the SharePoint server in order to integrate SSRS. PowerPivot can be on a separate server with just a download (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35577) for certain components residing on
    the SharePoint server. This will give you PowerView, as well.

  • SQL 2014 - current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS

    Hi,
    we've installed SQL Server 2014 on a Windows 2008 R2 server with a namde instance for the database service.
    We also installed MDS 2014 on a different server and configured it with the MDS database on de before mentioned database server.
    The configuration gives no error, but when I go to the MDS site, I receive the error in the title.
    We installed CU #3 on both servers, but that didn't fix it.
    In related articles a possible solution is using a default database instance, but since we can't work with that, that's not really an option for us.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Tony

    Hi,
    Do you know what's licensing you are using? Any chances you are using "Enterprise Edition: Core-based Licensing".
    We fixed a similar issue in CU4. The symptom is same as "SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS".

  • SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint

    We already have SQL Server 2012 standard edition installed with SharePoint 2013. We then upgraded SQL Server 2012 to the Endterprise Edition. Now we want to install Powerpivot and we did but it looks like we did or could not previously check the box on
    the SQL Server 2012 installation for SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint. How would I get this option turned on now that we already have our sharepoint up and running without it? Is it possible?

  • Where to install SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint?

    The environment is SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Edition and SQL Server 2012 SP2 Enterprise Edition.  
    SQL Server 2012 SP2 Enterprise Edition is installed as default instance on a dedicated box.   All the features are selected in the Feature Selection windows during installation (see image).
    Now, I need to install SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint.   Should it be installed on the same dedicated box?  If I understand correctly, I need to select the SQL Server PowerPivot for SharepPoint option and uncheck
    the checkbox Add SQL Server Database Relational Engine Services to this installation.   Does this option also install SSAS?  Since there is already an existing SSAS, will that cause problem?

    Hi PcSQL66,
    To install SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint, you need to select SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint
    on the Setup Role page. Please refer to the screenshot below.
    And if you have a SSAS instance installed in your server, install SQL Server PowerPivot for SharePoint will install another SSAS instance.
    For the detail information, please refer to the link below.

  • The current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS.

    I am currently trying to upgrade to SQL 2014, I am using a separate UAT domain to perform the upgrade before applying the upgrade to Dev domain.  I can install a clean instance of SQL 2014 DBE and MDS on the same server, create a new database and point
    IIS to it and it works fine.  When I backup and restore the database to another upgraded or clean install instance on another server I get the following. 
    The current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS.
    It is enterprise edition of SQL 2014 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
    Any ideas of how I can fix this ?

    Hi Neoafter,
    Firstly, please note, Master Data Service(MDS) is only available in the following editions of SQL Server 2014:
    Enterprise
    Business Intelligence
    Developer
    Secondly, let me explain you how SQL Server check whether the SKU is supporte for MDS.
    MDS object model(where the application host) get the connection string(from the web application request)
    Extract instance name from the connection string. If the connection string only has server name, the instance is the default one "MSSQSERVER"
    Call Sqlboot to check whether MDS is enabled in the specified instance
    So, there may have some possible causes for the error you posted:
    The connection string points to a instance that is not existing
    The specified instance is not a SQL Server 2014 instance
    The MDS application is upgraded to 2014, however the SQL Server service is still in a low version in the same machine
    The corresponding solution is:
    Ensure the server, which is running MDS application, has SQL Server 2014 installed
    Ensure the instance is existing, and it is 2014 version
    Ensure it is a right edition of course
    Anything unclear, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Is Distributed Transaction Coordinator services of the application role are required by SQL Server 2012 for clustering and support of SharePoint 2013.

    All I want to know is if Distributed Transaction Coordinator services of the application role are required by SQL Server 2012 for clustering and support of SharePoint 2013.
    I have been planning and deploying my companies first Windows Server 2012/SQL Server 2012 Always On cluster and Always On Availability Groups Multi-Subnet cluster and instances for SharePoint 2013, and I will be brutally honest, the documentation on either
    the MSDN and TechNet leave alot to be desired. Continually finding links in the documentation will take me from a Windows 2012 reference to a page talking about Windows Server 2008 or R2, The differences of which there are so many when it comes to configurations,
    settings, roles, services when working with SQL Server 2012. I have been confused, frustrated, screaming mad, with all the misdirection in this documentation.  The documentation takes me windows 2008 R2 which is different than 2012!
    Tired and trying to pick myself up off the floor!
    Greg
    Gman

    In general, DTC is not required for SQL 2012.  But, since you are asking specifically about SharePoint, it would be better to ask in a SharePoint forum.  They would be more likely to know those situations where FTC might be needed by SharePoint.

  • SQL server requirement for sharepoint 2013

    Hello All,
    currently i have installed SharePoint2013 in server farm mode, and i have used SQL Server 2008 R2 for DB. Can i use SQL Server 2012 for SharePoint 2013?
    Thanks

    SharePoint 2013 is compatible with SQL 2008 R2 and SQL 2012 so yes.
    What you can do is "move" the SharePoint DBs from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2012 without restore or backup.
    Link to msdn: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc512725(v=office.15).aspx
    Here you have an example for SharePoint 2010 (is the same for SharePoint 2013): http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/664029/Migrate-SharePoint-s-SQL-Server-to-another-SQL-Ser
