Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
We have a very high OLTP Application that is currently on SQL Server 2005<br />
<br />
When considering to upgrade which Verison do you think will be more benificial to support high performance (we dont use BI components).<br />
<br />
Which one is the major focus for development from Microsoft's view. Any specific advantages to move to R2. <br />
<br />
Please share your ideas.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

Upgrade to SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2?
