what is saved to db?

[Guest]

Hi,

Since the limit of SQL Express is 4 GB per database, it might be interesting
to know, if any content of BCM is saved into the database:

We can attach images and all file-types to business-contacts and companies.
These elements could let grow the db-size rapidly.

What about such content?
Is it in the sql database too?

Thanks for your feedback.

regards
Patrick

In general, the BCM database contains the data in the fields in
records in the BCM folders.

You can think of that as everything in BCM, with exceptions.

The exceptions are some of the history items which are stored in
Outlook's database: emails, appointments and tasks. Also any document
linked to from history, BCM only stores the link to the document.

BCM items do not support attachments.

I've never heard of anyone maxing out the 4 GB limit, without the
quantity of data first degrading performance to the point where the
database stops responding, and more data cannot be added.
