Asked by petsoukos
Hi there,
Which solution is a better fit for an App that overtime will reach millions of image files? Already migrating to Spaces, but does Spaces support/handle 10’s of millions of objects ? Maybe even distributed across many spaces/buckets ? I’m already at 2.6m objects for my 150k “entities”. My total entities are 4m. Should I continue the migration or seek a different solution?

Hello, @petsoukos
The DigitalOcean’s Spaces should be suitable with your needs. However please consider the fact that one space object has 250GB storage and include 1,024 GiB of outbound data transfer (from Spaces to the internet), which is shared between all Spaces, so it is important to keep in mind that there are rate limits.
You can also contact our support team about your inquiry and you can further discuss your plan and needs.
I will suggest you to check our official documentation about the product in order to make sure that this is what you need.

Hope this helps!
