Question
I just started using PostgresSQL. When I installed SQL Server Express years back, you typically had a database storage limit if you didn't install the full version. I think I remember it being 4GB, but that might have changed. Is there a database storage size limit for PostgresSQL without buying additional licenses or hardware? What is that limit?
Solution
On their webpage About they clarify that the limit is a lot huge than 4GB.
Limit Value
Maximum Database Size Unlimited
Maximum Table Size 32 TB
Maximum Row Size 1.6 TB
Maximum Field Size 1 GB
Maximum Rows per Table Unlimited
Maximum Columns per Table 250 - 1600 depending on column types
Maximum Indexes per Table Unlimited
