I currently have a dedicated desktop PC (not a server) running SQL 2008. I have a dozen OLAP Cubes running with Analysis Services and two SQL databases that are accessed with Tableau.My PC is getting old and is due to be replaced. At the same time I change PCs I would like to upgrade my SQL software. My first research step was to check prices on Amazon (we'll have to purchase through our internal IT group but I wanted to see what was available). There appears to be two versions; Developer and Standard. One is $50 and the other is $3000. Is there anything that would prevent me from migrating my 2008 databases to 2014 and running with Developer? I don't understand when it says that Production databases are prohibited. I don't need client licenses, SQL will be running on one PC only.Any advice?
