Couchbase can't store because it's too big

Question

We use python to store documents in couchbase.

we get this error message coming from couchbase.

_TooBigError_0x4 (generated, catch TooBigError): <Key=u'1426714751', RC=0x4[The object requested is too big to store in the server], Operational Error, Results=1, C Source=(src\multiresult.c,309)>

How can I change the maximum size?

I am using couchbase python SDK version 2.0

Answer 1

The maximum document size on Couchbase is 20 MB for Couchbase buckets and 1 MB for a Memcached bucket. It is not possible to change this, so if you click this restriction, you will need to change your data modeling to divide your documents into smaller objects.
