Re: [Dhis2-users] Using DHIS Data Store

 

Hi Aamer,

we are backing the value field with a "text" column in the database, so on
postgres the max size is around 2 GB.

We do parse the value to JSON for the response which has some overhead so
you will have to test whether such large values will perform adequately for
your use-case.

best regards,

Lars
