SQL server has to be available to the target system somehow.

No I mean just what I said. SQL Server has to be available to the target computer somehow. Whether you have the user install SQL Server on their computer for each installation or you find a central host for everyone to connect to is up to you. But you should be having the user install SQL Server not you. If they already have it installed and then you come along and install it again, there could be unforeseen consequences.

Thank you ( ThePhantomUpvoter )

1 solution

1. You can install application from server1 -app server
2. Install sql server in server 2 - database server
3. App Server can use database from database server. That is normal.
