Storage size of a vault

From a technical perspective, file data size is usually not the primary factor affecting overall vault performance or day-to-day operations. Factors such as the number of objects and object versions, vault configuration, system architecture and available server resources typically have a greater impact. Most common vault operations, including searches, primarily interact with the database and search index rather than the files themselves.

From a commercial perspective, if you are using M-Files Cloud, your subscription may include storage limits that should also be taken into consideration.

If you would like to discuss either the technical or commercial aspects in more detail, I recommend contacting your M-Files account team, who can provide guidance specific to your environment and subscription.
