Hi,
I have a SQL server standard edition 2014 which was installed years back, i am going to uninstall and install it again due to some reason, i wanted to make sure while i will install it whether i need to have license key which i do not have since i recently joined to this organization, i asked windows team to provide license keys and they replied its a core based product and it does not require license key to install, earlier they said its a server + CAL license but now saying its core based.
my query is, if it is core based license and taken for without software assurance, and if i install it again by dowloading sql sererv 2014 installation setup will it require license key?
another question is how can i make sure what kind of license is it?
