We are developing a project and incorporating a lot of new functionality located in SQL 2016 CTP. Chances are we're going to be ready to put this project into production ahead of the release of SQL 2016. So, the big hairy question is based on licensing terms, will we be allowed to run SQL 2016 CTP in a production environment until it's released at which point we can buy the appropriate license and upgrade the environment?
I get that running CTP doesn't yield us any support if we are not in any type of TAP program, but this is the platform our client has chosen for the functionality and they will need to go into production in early Q1 2016.
I'm really just looking for approval on using the license until it's released.
Thanks.
