hello pals, I have SQL 2014 std cluster server running and installed normally, now some after some testing on our applications we found out our testing was failing because the "Data-Driven subscription" feature is not available. We have found that this feature is not included or available by default for STD edition, its only available for EVL and Enterprise editions. My question, upgrading the SQL cluster server from STD to Enterprise is a solution for this or its not recommended or supported or guaranteed. Any other way to have this feature added to STD, is this possible or the upgrade is the only option? Any tips or risks here are highly appreciated.

    An in-place Edition upgrade Standard => Enterprise on a cluster is fully supported, see first note at https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/install-windows/upgrade-to-a-different-edition-of-sql-server-setup?view=sql-server-ver16
