Maximum number of instances for a custom object

[solene_roques]

Hello all,

Is there a limitation on the number of instances for a custom business object (business object created with PDI) ?

We have a requirement that I would like to address with a custom business object. However, the customer has 11 millions of entries for this object. I wondered about the feasibility of it. The object would be quite basic, around 30 string fields.

Thanks for any hints

Best regards

Dear Solene,

There are no restrictions on the number of instances, however in the background there are some limitations which are stored per BO node combination in the backend table. In custom BO's, each custom node in every tenant and every solution has its own persistency table. Each node has a limit of 15000 bytes of memory.

NOTE: allocated memory depends on the datatype given for each custom field.

Please refer to the below blog for more details.
