Hello, I'm using the engine WiredTiger in MongoDB and I desperately seeking documentation about its limits.

(like max collections in one DB, max documents in a collection, etc.)

Can you help me please? Thank you a lot and have a nice day !

Thank you for your response, but I already checked it and there are few "The WiredTiger storage engine is not subject to this limitation."

What does it means, this is unlimited or limited but not documented ?

Hi Gabriel,

Thank you for your response, but I already checked it and there are few “The WiredTiger storage engine is not subject to this limitation.”

What does it means, this is unlimited or limited but not documented ?

It means that there is no specified limit in WiredTiger regarding those things. Of course, there are limits in the O/S or hardware side regarding things like Data Size, but there is no set limit (documented or undocumented) in WiredTiger itself.

Best regards,
Kevin
