sql support

I am trying to determine whether these builds of SQL are still supported (extended support), I appreciate there is the support life-cycle but it has allsorts of clauses about when support ends in line with future SP releases etc so I would appreciate some assistance:

SQL 2000 SP4
SQL 2005 SP4
SQL 2008 SP1
SQL 2008 R2 (no SP applied)
SQL 2012 SP2
Microsoft SQL Server

Does the same rule apply for 2005 that to be supported you need to be at the last sp ie sp4??
Vitor Montalvão

Yes. I just didn't say nothing about that because your SQL Server 2005 has already the SP4 :)

So ss2012 even with no sp applied is supported?

No. You should apply SQL Server 2012 SP2 to stay supported.
