Licensing

[Sevo]

I know that I can have up to 2 GB RAM for the Standard Edition of SQL
Server, but if I had two instances, can I have 2 GB per instance, say for 2
instances which would equal 4 GB, or is it 2 GB for that installation of SQL
Server and all of it's instances?

Thanks.

Re: Licensing

You could have 2 instances with 4 GB in total, but with Standard Edition,
you have to have a separate license for each instance.
