How to control the excessive use of ram by SQL Server?

Can someone tell me what are the hardware limitations of sql express 2012?

  • I'm planning on bying a new server with 8 gb of ram but want to use sql express 2012, if that a waste? or sql express will allow it? Thanks

  • Answer:

    examine the license for SQL Server first. I don't think microsoft will allow that. from what I read, the express editions are a 30-day trial, and you can't post your source IF you wanted to. see lkink below to get the license agreement. won't allow you to do that I don't think, you will have to buy regular SQL server for $1000 or whatever it costs, and any client licenses it requires. this is the reason many people choose postgresql or mysql instead. those are free for the web. getting something really tunable costs money though.
