General info
SQL Server 2017 brings the performance and security of SQL Server to Linux and Docker containers. SQL Server 2017 offers customers a variety of licensing options aligned with how customers typically purchase specific workloads. With a Device CAL, you purchase a CAL for every device that accesses your server, regardless of the number of users who use that device to access the server. Device CALs may make more economic and administrative sense if your company has workers who share devices, for example, on different work shifts.
