Question / Problem
Are there any size limits for the database?
Answer / Solution
When using a common sql server database there is no size limitation by default. Howerver, most comercial sql server database systems offer a free "Express" version of there sql server which are mostly limited in:
- The maximum database size (MS SQL Server 2019 Express database is limited to 10 GB, without Transaction log files)
- The number of used CPU cores / sockets (MS SQL Server 2019 Express: 1 socket or 4 cores)
- The maximum used cache / memory (MS SQL Server 2019 Express: 1.4 GB RAM)
