I keep finding different answers to this question. Does someone have a definitive one? I know 2012 Standard Edition supports partitions in a cube - up to 3 right? I can't get my instance to process them in parallel tho. Is it true that StdEd supports having partitions, but won't process them in parallel - or cubes either.

If it's not true what do I have to do to get it to parallel process?

I have an 2012 Enterprise Edition in Test and it works super there.

thx!

Hope this answers your question

The 3 partition limit in standard edition is there for a reason
