I'm migrating a simple SharePoint installation (WSS 3.0 with internal DB) to SharePoint Foundation 2013 backed by SQL Server 2014. SQL Server 2014 seems to have a lot of options about which features I can run. I only want to run the minimum that would actually get used. Which features do I need to install?

I saw someone asked a similar question here: Recommended SQL Server 2008 R2 instance features for Sharepoint Foundation 2010, I'm asking the same question but with different instances of the products.

The only minimum that you actually need is exactly the answer in the old post. The top one called "Database Engine Service" for the actual SQL engine and "Management tools - basic/complete" for Management Studio.

This is what most people choose to go with when setting up a development or a minimal foundation server, as the rest is just additional features for example Reporting Services or PowerPivot that is not even included in SharePoint foundation.
