I'm working on an EDM migration project and I would like to know if anyone has information on the documents limitation in Liferay 6.2 CE.
We need to import millions of documents to a Liferay instance. I would like to know if someone has done that with a community edition ? And if someone knows if I need a cluster of Liferay's to keep an acceptable response time for the end users.
Thanks for your advices ! Julien
I found an answer in the Liferay documentation. https://dev.liferay.com/fr/discover/deployment/-/knowledge_base/7-0/document-repository-configuration
The advanced file system store overcomes this limitation by programmatically creating a structure that can expand to millions of files, by alphabetically nesting the files in folders. This not only allows for more files to be stored, but also improves performance as there are fewer files stored per folder.
So it seems that with this advanced file system store, Liferay can handle millions of documents and bypass OS limitations.
Hope this helps other.
