OVERVIEW
Build intelligent, mission-critical applications using a scalable, hybrid database platform that has everything from in-memory performance and advanced security to in-database analytics built in with Server 2016 Standard.
MICROSOFT SERVER 2016 STANDARD - BUILT TO HELP YOU DO MORE
INDUSTRY LEADER
Build mission-critical, intelligent applications for online transaction processing (OLTP) with breakthrough scalability, performance, and availability with Server 2016 Standard.
ADVANCED SECURITY
Protect data at rest and in motion. Server has been the least vulnerable database in the NIST vulnerabilities database for six years.
END-TO-END MOBILE BI
Turn data into actionable insights. Deliver insights on any device—online or offline—at one-fifth the cost of other self-service solutions.
ADVANCED IN-DATABASE ANALYTICS
Analyze data directly in the Server database using the popular statistical language R.
SERVER 2016 STANDARD BUILT FOR HYBRID CLOUD
Get a consistent platform and tools for easier workload mobility between your data center, private cloud, or Microsoft Azure.
FASTER QUERIES
When users want data, they want it as fast as you can give it. Microsoft Server 2016 includes a variety of options to enable faster queries. Memory-optimized tables now support faster online transaction processing (OLTP) workloads with better throughput as a result of new parallelized operations.
IN-MEMORY OLTP ENHANCEMENTS
In-Memory OLTP helps speed up high-concurrency, high-latching transaction workloads by moving data from disk-based tables to memory-optimized tables and compiling stored procedures locally. In-memory OLTP can also help improve data warehouse staging performance by using lightweight, memory-optimized tables as staging tables.
IN-MEMORY ANALYTICS
Server 2016 adds support for column store indexes to memory-optimized OLTP tables, adding more options for performing real-time analytics on rapidly changing memory data. The resource contention between the two workloads is significantly reduced when they run simultaneously. As changes occur to a table, the database engine automatically manages the changes to the index to keep it up to date with the underlying table.
ANALYSIS SERVICES ENHANCEMENTS
Analysis Services provides two different modes to support fast reporting and analytics: multidimensional and tabular. In Server 2016, both multidimensional mode and table mode benefit from performance-enhancing enhancements. DirectQuery now produces a simpler, better-performing query in Server 2016 than in previous versions.
BETTER SECURITY
SQL Server 2016 introduces three new key security features: Always Encrypted, Row-Level Security, and dynamic data masking. Because of the innovative client-side encryption technology "Always Encrypted," the SQL Server instance never sees the unencrypted version of the data.
ROW-LEVEL SECURITY
Row-Level Security (RLS) allows you to configure tables so that users can only see the rows within the table that you have granted them access to. This feature automatically applies a predicate to the query, limiting the rows returned to the user regardless of which application they are using.
DYNAMIC DATA MASKING
When you have a database that contains sensitive data, you can use dynamic data masking to hide a portion of the data unless you grant a user permission to view the unmasked data. Dynamic data masking is available for use in SQL Database.
WIDER DATA ACCESS
As the cost of storing data continues to decrease and the number of data formats commonly used by applications continues to change, you need the ability to both manage access to historical data relationally and seamlessly integrate relational data with semistructured and unstructured data. SQL Server 2016 includes several new features that support this evolving environment by providing access to a wide variety of data.
TIME DATA
SQL Server 2016 now supports temporal tables, which were introduced as a new standard in ANSI SQL 2011. In addition, Transact-SQL has been extended to support the creation of temporal tables and querying those tables based on a specific time.
JSON
With the addition of JSON support in Server 2016, you can now support both relational and non-relational data structures in your environment and choose the appropriate model for your data requirements and workloads.
POLYBASE
In Server 2016, you can now use PolyBase to query data from Hadoop or Azure Blob Storage and combine the results with relational data stored in SQL Server.
OTHER FEATURES
HIGHER AVAILABILITY
In an always-online world, preserving uptime and simplifying maintenance for your mission-critical applications is more important than ever. By running Server 2016 on Windows Server 2016, you have more options to better manage clusters and storage.
MORE ANALYTICS
Better and faster analytics capabilities are built into Server 2016. Improvements to tabular models provide greater flexibility for designing models, and a suite of new tools help you develop solutions faster and easier.
BETTER REPORTING WITH SERVER 2016 STANDARD
For report developers, Reporting Services in Server 2016 Standard features a more modern development environment, two new data visualizations, and improved parameter layout options.
IMPROVED AZURE DATABASE
Development teams can benefit from a full testing and telemetry cycle by integrating new features into Database before Server, allowing them to add features to both products much faster.
Need complete and optimized control of your data? Fear no more, Server 2016 is here! With new utilities like the ability to use 24 processing cores or handle different data types like JSON and Spatial Data, you are better equipped for the evolving world of data around you. With all the new tools like elastic databases, moving or managing your database to the cloud has become much easier and simpler.
