Hi Rick,
I would like to know (with references/URLs preferably) what are the
kinds of sizes that large Derby installs stretch to? Would it go to 1TB?
More? Less?
At Sun Microsystems
Straight from the horse's mouth no less! :)
we ran a stress test on a Derby database which
successfully grew to 500GB.
I have no reason to believe that Derby wouldn't scale to 1TB as well.
I perhaps should have mentioned that I'm interested in both the
client-server and embedded - no difference?
Hi Paul,
The database size shouldn't be affected by how you connect
(client-server vs. embedded). However, network overhead may add some
performance drag when you store and retrieve data.
Hope this helps,

Though, at the moment,
0.5TB - 1TB would be the absolute max - and performance
would not be the major criterion.
