Portal - uploading documents

[#1]

I am testing the uploading of public and personal documents into the SAP portal.

I would like to know where the data is stored so I can project any future data growth when rolled out to all users.

Does anyone know?

Hi,

You can make use of the Quick sizer, by which you can plan your hardware.

Look at http://service.sap.com/quicksizer for more information.

If the Knowledge Management repository is DataBase Mode, all data (documents, folders, and metadata) is stored in the database.

As all documents are stored in the database, this avoids unintentional external manipulation of the data.

In the case of a database, the maximum size is the total of all CM repositories located in the database.

This means allocation of Database size is directly proportional to KM size.

For more information check this [SAP help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/62/468698a8e611d5993600508b6b8b11/frameset.htm]

Hi,

I am not sure if those details are revealed. But you can certainly make use of the KM APIs to build an custom application

Sandeep,

you may investigate this [SAP documentation|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp2/helpdata/en/62/468698a8e611d5993600508b6b8b11/frameset.htm] and [SAP Note 900571|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/900571] to consider which type of CM Repository Manager you should choose for storing public resources.

Storing files on the File Systems will make the process of planning and sizing much easier than in the DB. So, you will be able immediately know where the uploaded resource are stored and how much space they take.
