Key Features

Microsoft Extended Security Updates for SQL Server 2012 Standard
2-core pack for first-year EOS coverage
Coverage window July 2022 to July 2023
Designed for post-support security update access
Supports legacy database risk management

Keep legacy SQL Server workloads protected while migration plans stay on schedule. This Microsoft Extended Security Updates pack covers SQL Server 2012 Standard for 2 cores during the first year of end-of-support coverage, helping organizations maintain security updates after mainstream support has ended. For teams running applications that cannot move immediately, ESU buys time without forcing a rushed platform change. It supports controlled transition planning, reduces exposure from unpatched vulnerabilities, and helps preserve operational continuity while infrastructure, application, and database owners align on the next target state. This 1st-year ESU is especially relevant for environments with regulated data, long-lived line-of-business systems, or dependencies that make immediate upgrade impractical. It is not a substitute for modernization, but it is a disciplined way to keep a known workload covered while the migration window remains open. For procurement and IT leadership, that means clearer risk management and a more orderly path off SQL Server 2012.

Ideal For

Legacy SQL Server 2012 Standard databases awaiting migration
Regulated environments needing continued security update coverage
Line-of-business applications tied to older database platforms
IT teams staging a controlled move to a newer SQL Server version

Why This Product
