Storage limit in PPU License

Hi,

 

We are using a PPU license (P3), We have created dataflows in one workspace called Dataflow Workspace and all the reports using dataflows as a source in another workspace called Prod Workspace. The size of the dataflow workspace is approximately 10 GB, and the size of the workspace where all datasets are deployed in the production workspace is approximately 40GB. We are planning to move dataflows and datasets into the same workspace to create deployment pipelines. Could you please help me with your answers to the questions mentioned below?

1. What is the storage limit of each dataset and each dataflow on the PPU?

2. Are there any limitations in storage when we create dataflows and datasets in the same workspace?

3. What is the maximum storage capacity in a workspace using a PPU license?

4. How do you check the overall storage capacity?


Thanks,
SP

Storage capacity is no longer a thing.  In Fabric you can have as much storage as you want as long as you pay for the consumption.

 

You have other limits though.  A single partition cannot be larger than 10GB for Premium and 1GB otherwise. You cannot have more than 1000 semantic models in a workspace etc.
