Database Limits

This chapter lists the limits of values associated with database functions and objects. Limits exist on several levels in the database. There is usually a hard-coded limit in the database that cannot be exceeded. This value may be further restricted for any given operating system.

Database limits are divided into four categories:

• Datatype Limits

• Physical Database Limits

• Logical Database Limits

• Process and Runtime Limits
