■ Windows Server 2003 CALs for all employees or employee devices.<br />

■ Windows Server 2003 Server licenses for each server providing either Share-<br />

Point Portal Server or Windows SharePoint Services functionality.<br />

■ SharePoint Portal Server 2003 CALs for all employees or employee devices.<br />

■ SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Server Licenses for each server providing Share-<br />

Point Portal Server functionality.<br />

■ SharePoint Portal Server External Connector License for each server that provides<br />

Windows SharePoint Services functionality to partners, customers, or<br />

both.<br />

■ Optional: SQL Server 2000 processor licenses. SQL Server must be licensed per<br />

processor for external use. (See the “SQL Server Licensing Guidelines” section<br />

that follows.)<br />

SQL Server Licensing Guidelines<br />

The correct SQL Server licensing option depends on the type of SharePoint <strong>Products</strong><br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> deployment <strong>and</strong> current SQL Server license availability, as outlined<br />

in the following list:<br />

■ SQL Server 2000 is not required. Windows SharePoint Services ships with<br />

<strong>Microsoft</strong> SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (Windows) (WMSDE), which does<br />

not have the 2-gigabyte (GB) storage limit of MSDE. SharePoint Portal Server<br />

ships with MSDE. Customers can choose to deploy SQL Server 2000 for optimal<br />

performance <strong>and</strong> scalability.<br />

■ If your customer already owns SQL Server 2000 CALs <strong>and</strong> plans an internal<br />

SharePoint <strong>Products</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> deployment only, it might be more costeffective<br />

to purchase only the required number of additional SQL Server 2000<br />

Server licenses than to purchase per-processor licenses.<br />

■ If your customer does not already own SQL Server CALs <strong>and</strong> plans an internal<br />

SharePoint <strong>Products</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> deployment, they should then calculate<br />

<strong>and</strong> compare the cost of CAL/Server vs. per-processor licensing for their specific<br />

deployment.<br />

■ If your customer plans an external SharePoint <strong>Products</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong><br />

deployment, they must license SQL Server on a per-processor basis, regardless<br />

of whether or not their employees or employee devices are licensed with SQL<br />

Server CALs. Because SQL Server has dual licensing, it does not have an External<br />

Connector license for nonemployees.
