- approximately 16 gb database size
- no hard-coded limits on the number of tables, records, fields, indexes – but memory and database size will impose limits
- approximately 100 concurrent database server connections (users)
- maximum string/field/record size will be limited by memory issues – a megabyte is reasonable, much more will likely run into problems
- no fixed limit on heap size, a few hundred megabytes is reasonable
- numbers use a decimal floating point representation that has at least 13 digits of precision (often more – integers have 16 digits) and an exponent range of +/- 511
- dates handle from the year 1600 on, times have millisecond precision
