We will require a SQL Server 2005 Standard. How much is the monthly fee on the dedicated server hosting plan you mentioned?? When I check the URL, I found more options. Which one fit best??

Thanks.

[BodShane]

To be honest, if you have a small database then the best suggestion would be to opt for MS SQL 2005 Express Advanced Edition which is a Free version and will definitely save on your investment on a dedicated server.

However, there are many other versions that can also be looked into such as the following :

- MS SQL 2005 Workgroup Edition : $149.00 ( In Addition to Server Price )
- MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition : $199.00 ( In Addition to Server Price )
- MS SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition : $249.00 ( In Addition to Server Price )

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Hello Wen,

Welcome to bodhost forum.

Thanks. One of your sales team replied to my e-mail and suggested that we can go with your cheap Windows VPS Hosting plan. I checked it out and the Corporate plan seems about right for our needs. I just want to confirm if the server is 32-bit with .NET/ASP.NET version 2.0, IIS 6 or 7 and allows us to remote access and installs programs ourselves.

May I know how many clients you have on each server for VPS hosting plan??

Thanks.

Wen

Hello Wen,

Basically client access on the server hosting package all depends upon the database and their resources.

Hi Wen, to bodhost forum

Can anyone tell me how many databases, especially SQL Server 2005 DB can be hosted on Windows VPS Corporate plan??

Thanks,

Wen

[BodShane]

MS SQL 2005 express Advanced Edition has 4GB database size limit. Please let us know if this is the information you looking for. However, there are no restrictions from our end in respect to the number of databases that can be hosted on a Windows VPS Corporate Hosting plan.

Will there be any extra charge if we host more than one database?? We will be adding SQL Server 2005 Standard edition when we sign up your Windows VPS corporate plan.

Thanks.

Wen Thanx

Thanks for your quick response. I also would like to make sure the flexibility of adding more HD space and RAM and the pricing schedule of adding those into the Windows VPS Corporate plan that we will be signing up soon.

Sorry to ask so many questions but I would like to make sure we found the right solution.

Thanks!!
