m Server 2008 R2 has it as well (I checked the add/remove features list and it's there; not sure if it's still 32-bit since there isn't a 32-bit version of Server 2008 R2) |

Line 1:
'''Windows Internal Database''' (codenamed WYukon, sometimes referred to as SQL Server Embedded Edition) is a variant of [[SQL Server Express]] 2005 that is included with [[Windows Server 2008]] and [[Windows Server 2008 R2]], and is included with other free [[Microsoft]] products released after 2007 that require an SQL Server database backend. [[Windows SharePoint Services]] 3.0 and [[Windows Server Update Services]] 3.0 both include Windows Internal Database, which can be used as an alternative to using a retail edition of SQL Server. WID is a 32-bit application, even as component of Windows Server 2008 64-bit, which installs in the path C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server.
Windows Internal Database is not available as a standalone product for use by end-user applications; Microsoft provides SQL Server Express and [[Microsoft SQL Server]] for this purpose. Additionally, it is designed to only be accessible to [[Windows Service]]s running on the same machine.
