SQL recommendation - local or remote

SasiSan

My servers are virtualized.  Have a dedicated SQL Server blade with a SQL Server 2008R2 instance and SQL 2012.  SOPHOS server is in the same blade with fiber channels connecting.

Why would I install an express copy of SQL on the same machine as the Enterprise console? (vendor recommending)

Thanks in Advance for the experience opinions.

    Hello SasiSan,

    having the database local simplifies future upgrades and migrations - that's why it is recommended. The database has no special demands, judging from my installation for a few thousand endpoints it doesn't cause much load on the VM except memory. It also has no special requirements in terms of database management.

    Just see that Jak more or less said the same (but more detailed and with better wording) - so I must be right :smileywink:
