Large VBR server, SQL or Postgres

[Henrik.Grevelund]

Hi,

When reading the documentation it only mentions that Microsoft SQL server still can be used, but the default is Postgres. I seem to remember a older version of the V12 documentation mentioning that large installations should use Microsoft SQL.

The Best pratice guide(https://bp.veeam.com/vbr/Support/config ... erver.html) mentions that if the Veeam server handles 5000-10000 workloads, Microsoft SQL should be used.

I would like to know if someone just forgot to update the BP guide, or this still is the recommendation from veeam ?

Ive never seen this table, and I know they are updating this guide so lets say its written for v12.
However I think you should read this as concurrent load. do you have over 1000 concurrent tasks? for example: 2 disks per vm = 500 vm's concurrent.

Right, it was valid for the initial V12 release but with the current version we no longer differentiate between the two database engine from scalability perspective.
