What is the biggest DB size SQLserver can handle ?

Experts:
We are going to start SAP projects for terabyte DBs.
What is the maximum DB size SQLserver(2005, 2008) can handle without serious performance issue?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
we run multiple SAP systems  beyond 1 TB (biggest around 12 TB) without any performance issues. Performance is not directly related to the size of the DB but on how you distribute the data (I/O capacity). Important factors are number of data files, type of storage (SAN, NAS,...), number of spindels, number of users, proper indexing and so on. Also, your DB server hardware should be able to process the data delivered by the storage system (CPU + RAM).
The size of the DB ist not the important performance factor but the underlying hardware.
Regards,
Sven

    MTSTUNER,
    I remember us talking about Adobe documenting the maximum file sizes, and I just found this while browsing on the Photoshop Developer's site (http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/photoshop/fileformatashtml/).  It's a description of the PSD file header information:
    File Header Section 
    The file header contains the basic properties of the image.
    Length
    Description
    4
    Signature: always equal to '8BPS' . Do not try to read the file if the signature does not match this value.
    2
    Version: always equal to 1. Do not try to read the file if the version does not match this value. (**PSB** version is 2.)
    6
    Reserved: must be zero.
    2
    The number of channels in the image, including any alpha channels. Supported range is 1 to 56.
    4
    The height of the image in pixels. Supported range is 1 to 30,000.
    (**PSB** max of 300,000.)
    4
    The width of the image in pixels. Supported range is 1 to 30,000.
    (*PSB** max of 300,000)
    2
    Depth: the number of bits per channel. Supported values are 1, 8, 16 and 32.
    2
    The color mode of the file. Supported values are: Bitmap = 0; Grayscale = 1; Indexed = 2; RGB = 3; CMYK = 4; Multichannel = 7; Duotone = 8; Lab = 9.
    So it's not surprising that PSE's max is 30K x 30K.

    20mb, but I would suggest leaving a little space. 15 is reliable.

  • What is the biggest hard drive I can place in my mac book pro?

    I have a late 2011 mac book pro 15". I need a bigger hard drive in the laptop because this one is just way too small. What is the biggest hard drive i can put in the laptop. I'm asking this because i can't find any real info on types of hard drives i can get and what not.

    If you're going to trust your internal drive up to 1TB, which is indeed possible, I would recommend buying a backup drive of 2-3TBs. Personally, I'd rather have a 512GB SSD with a 2TB backup and a 2TB 'working' external than try to cram 1TB into my portable computer...
    ...that's just me...

  • What's the Biggest Hard Drive You Can Fit in a Macbook Pro?

    I've got MacBook Pro 17' with 750gb HDD, need to upgrade the HDD to 2 or more TB. What is the biggest HDD I can fit my MacBook Pro?
    How do I go about cloning my current HDD onto the NEW HDD.
    Thanks.

    The GB don't matter. All that matters is the physical size. It can't be higher than 9.5mm. The largest 9.5mm hard drive so far is 750gb.
    To buy a hard drive try Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=380&name=Laptop-Hard-Dr ives or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/

  • HT4059 What is the largest iBook size I can author?

    I am makeing my first iBook using Pages for my text. The book is just for my family and not for publication. What is the maximum size that I can convert to an iBook?

    The largest capacity HDD that you can install is the HGST 1.5 TB HDD:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/HGST/0J28001/
    Any 2.5" 9.5mm thick SATA HDD will fit and operate in your MBP, regardless of capacity.

  • What is the biggest hard drive I can install on the aluminium iMac 24in EMC 2134 model

    I'm trying to upgrade my intel iMac 24" after an HD failure by installing the biggest drive I can using ifixit.com for guidance. I've not done this before but trust the guide and now have the necessary tools. Need advice on best make and size to maximise performance. Also want to upgrade memory to at least 4GB. Is there any advantage in installing 4GB +2GB?

    The largest capacity hdd you can install is the one with the most storage capacity you can find that will fit into your mac physically.  Here's how to see if you need more ram: http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/answers/how_to_tell_if_your_mac_needs_more_ram/

  • What is the maximum File Size we can send

    Hi Experts,
      I have done simple scenario file to file without IR.
    I have one doubt here, what is maximum file size (Text and XML)we can transfer from source to target ftps.
    text file = file size?
    xml file = file size?
    Thanks for inputs.
    Bhaskar

    There is no limit to the message size (file size) that can be transfered.....the only thing required is that your server should have the necessary configuration (hardware) to handle a file of a particlar size.
    this question is actually asked a couple of times and in there people have even mentioned the transfer of files in 1GB ...  so it all depends on your Hardware.

  • What is the maximum file size I can import to Quicktime Pro 7?

    I have some clips that are 2-3 GB in size. Can I import these into Quicktime Pro 7 and edit them? For example cut them in half so each reduced file size half can be opened in other software that has a 2 GB limit?
    Also, can I save a Quicktime file as MPEG-4?
    Thank you!

    If the files are in a format that QuickTime understands then there really isn't a file size limit.
    QuickTime Player Pro can export most formats that it can open to MPEG-4 codec formats.

  • What is the maxium number a vector can handle

    Hi,
    Well since I have not recieved any replies as of yet to my
    other question, and since I need to push my project along, I
    decided to use the behaviour scripts given at director-online/havok
    site, and I applied them to my car. In additioin, I am also trying
    to use the create terrain behaviour that is included in the raycast
    jeep demo. However, I would like to set my terrain size to 6000
    units in width and 6000 units in depth. So when I attach the
    behaviour to the 3d scene, the getPropertyDescriptionList dialog
    window opens to allow you to set the terrain's size, which it asks
    you to set the upper left corner vector which I set it to
    vector(3000, 0, -3000) and then it asks you to set the lower right
    coner vector which I set this to vector(-3000, 0, 3000) which in
    total should give me the size of 6000 units in width and 6000 units
    in depth. However, after I click on the "OK" button my values
    change to the following...
    upper left corner = vector(3.00000e3, 0, -3.00000e3)
    lower right corner = vector(-3.00000e3, 0, 3.00000e3)
    In addition, not only that the whole number changed from 3000
    to 3, but the biggest problem is that because the end values have
    the e3 added to it I get a script error when I play the movie. So I
    was wondering if there is a maximum number that a vector unit can
    handle? If so then is there another type of format I could use that
    handle larger numbers? Or is this a bug in Director 8.51. Yeah I
    know, I am way behind in the software versions, but I do not have
    $1200 to shovle out for a new version of Director.

    Oh I see. So I guess what you are saying is that is
    Director's way of compressing vector numbers. Also, as to what you
    were saying about the number 3000 is sure not the limit for vector
    units, I think I was just jumping the gun considering that I only
    glanced at the script error, and then clicked on the debug button
    to see where the error happened. Then once I looked at the varibles
    in the varible window, I saw these weird numbers with the e3 at the
    end of them, and I just thought that it could not add the vectors
    together with the e3 at the end of each vector unit. However, to
    make a long story short, I detached the script and reattached it
    which did no create the error again, and I learned that Director
    can add vector units together that have an e3 at the end of each
    vector unit. So thanks for clarifying what the e3 means.

  • What is the max form size you can distribute in Acrobat 9 Pro?

    Hello Everyone,
    I am using Acrobat 9 Pro to create a survery form that needs to be distributed out to several people.  The form basically is a bunch of radio buttons that answer questions.  There will be well over 200 radio button groups in the 4 page document.  Is there a limit in acrobat for how many form fields you can have?
    I just wanted to make sure before I took on the laborious task of creating the form.
    Thanks for any help its greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the input Try67.  I just found out how many form fields they wanted the other day.  Hopefully its ok but if now we will have to go another route.

  • What is the max Data size that can be converted to PDF using CR 2008 SP5

    Hi All,
    When I supply more data to convert to PDF using XML data source I get exception on converting the stream
    Exception :
    Error generating PDF. Exception:Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
       at CrystalDecisions.ReportSource.EromReportSourceBase.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext)
       at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine.ExportToStream(ExportRequestContext reqContext)
       at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.ExportToStream(ExportOptions options)
       at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument.ExportToStream(ExportFormatType formatType)
    But it works with smaller size like 50-60K of data.
    I searched about the exception and the results were mentioning about wrong placement of runtimes.
    But my doubt is if the problem is with runtimes then why it works with less data?
    Thanks.

    Version of CR (be precise...)?
    Version of .NET?
    OS?
    Is this on your dev computer or after you deploy the app?
    Add code used in the app please.

  • What is the total throughput a WIC can handle

    I have a 2621 with a WIC card supporting a T-1. I would like to I-Mux three T-1s across the WIC port. I know that it was not recommended to put more than (3)T-1s across a FSIP of a 7000. But I am not sure about WICs.

    You cannot mux 3 T1s into one WIC port.

  • What is the max file size that a Adapter Engine [J2SE] can handle ?

    We are having a scenario where a 4 GB compressed file needs to be sent across without mapping, I'm trying to explore the possible options to tackle this scenario.
    Some of the options, we are considering :
    - Sending a file from one Adapter Engine [J2SE] to another Adapter Engine [J2SE] bypassing PI. Adapter Logs will be monitored. What is the maximum file size that can be then handled assuming a standard installation ?
    - What is the max file size that Adapter Engine [J2SE] can send through PI without mapping?
    Any help with the above options or with any other possible solutions to handle extremely large file transfers will be much appreciated.

    Hi,
    j2se is not a good option here
    if you have 4gb then you need a copy solution
    a) build an proxy that will just copy the file from sender dest to receiver
    b) build an adapter that will do the same as proxy)
    this way processing of this message will be controlled with SAP PI/XI
    it will be as quick as copy & paste of the 4gb file
    I did the a) for one of the flow for 300 mb and it works perfectly
