There is no known "maximum limit" to the number of items you can store in DSpace.
However, as you store more items in DSpace, you will likely eventually need to upgrade to a more powerful server (with more memory and processing power). You will also want to pay closer attention to our Performance Tuning suggestions on the DSpace Wiki: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/HowToPerformanceTuneForDspace Performance Tuning becomes much more important as you start to approach storing 1/2-1 million items. Without any performance tuning, it's highly likely DSpace would begin to slow down as you add more and more items. We've made recent improvements to the scalability and performance of DSpace in version 1.7.0. So, using DSpace 1.7.0, you should see better overall scalability (and you should be able to run a larger-sized DSpace on a reasonable sized server). However, even with DSpace 1.7.0, we highly recommend looking into the above performance tuning suggestions to ensure optimum performance out of your DSpace installation. Let us know if you have more questions. I'm sure others with larger sized DSpace installs may be able to offer you additional suggestions. - Tim On 1/19/2011 4:33 AM, dspace nsu wrote: > Dear Sir, > I want to know the maximum items limit of the dspace.
