[question] - database storage and size limits #26

Closed rmszc81 closed 1 year ago

rmszc81 commented 2 years ago

hello team, first, thanks for providing us this nice framework, it's really interesting to work with.

then, I have 2 questions, maybe it's a dumb ones:

1) technically, how big a database can be in storage? GBs? TBs? 2) one of my intentions is to store files inside the database, probably as a byte array. is there any recommended way for this? (performance related question);

that's all for now. Thank you very much ^^

Ross.

4 months already and not a single answer. Is this project dead?

Sorry, this question has been overlooked; also this kind of question is better suited for StackOverflow as we'd prefer to keep this issue tracker primarily for issues.

You can store several TBs and large binary data should be indeed stored as byte arrays.
