You can select the Basic installation type during installation.
Also for database management, we need SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). You can download it .
Also, as an alternative to Server Management Studio, you can use sqlcmd. The sqlcmd utility lets you enter Transact-SQL statements, system procedures, and script files at the command prompt.
HES uses TCP/IP to connect to the SQL Server database, but SQL Server Express does not enable TCP support by default. To enable TCP/IP:

3.3. On the General tab, change Enabled to Yes.
3.4. On the IP Addresses tab, under the IPAll node, clear the TCP Dynamic Ports box.
3.5. In TCP Port, enter the port to listen on 1433. This port is to be used in the HES connection string.
3.6. Click OK.
