Sadly, Kim this is an argument that I seem to lose all the time, hence why I find myself on a project with 3,500 systems and a 4 SCCM server implementation From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] SCCM2012: Local vs Remote SQL Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2013 19:02:22 +0000
Don't think there's official statements out there for one or the other on sub 50.000 sites. I'd go for the philosophical approach. "When I change a single point off failure into 2 single points of failure have I improved matters?"

I’m arguing SQL should be local as less than 50,000 clients, I need more than TechNet forum posts and community blogs to back that up though. Any help would be appreciated.
