| Standard edition is
an affordable option for small and medium-sized
organizations. It includes the core functionality
needed for non-mission-critical e-commerce,
data warehousing, and line-of-business solutions.
For instance, all of the XML features present
in Enterprise Edition are also included in
Standard Edition. And while a handful of advanced
OLAP features are reserved for Enterprise
Edition, all data mining features and the
core OLAP functionality are included in SQL
Server 2000 Analysis Services in Standard
Edition.
Similarly, components that other database
vendors charge for as separate add-on products
for their highest-end editions are included
in Standard Edition:
