Windows Server 2012 R2 Licensing

To run an instance of Windows Server 2012 software on your server, you must license every processor on the server. Each Windows Server license covers up to two physical processors on a single server. The number of instances you may run depends on the Windows Server edition license that is assigned.

The only difference between these two editions are the virtualization rights. Standard edition entitles you to run one instance in the physical Operating System Environment (OSE) and two instances in the virtual OSE.  (For explanation of OSE see this link) You get entitled to unlimited number of VMs on up to two physical processors per server when using the Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition.

At the heart of Microsoft’s Cloud OS, Windows Server helps customers transform the datacenter, taking advantage of technical advances and new hybrid cloud capabilities to increase resilience, simplify management, reduce cost, and speed delivery of services to the business.
