MySQL 8.4 Reference Manual Including MySQL NDB Cluster 8.4
Some database objects such as tables and indexes have different
limitations when using the
NDBCLUSTER storage engine:
Number of database objects.
The maximum number of all
NDB database objects in a
single NDB Cluster—including databases, tables, and
indexes—is limited to 20320.
Attributes per table. The maximum number of attributes (that is, columns and indexes) that can belong to a given table is 512.
Attributes per key. The maximum number of attributes per key is 32.
Row size. The maximum permitted size of any one row is 30000 bytes.
Each BLOB or
TEXT column contributes 256 +
8 = 264 bytes to this total; this includes
JSON columns. See
String Type Storage Requirements, as well
as JSON Storage Requirements, for more
information relating to these types.
In addition, the maximum offset for a fixed-width column of
an NDB table is 8188 bytes; attempting to
create a table that violates this limitation fails with NDB
error 851 Maximum offset for fixed-size columns
exceeded. For memory-based columns, you can work
around this limitation by using a variable-width column type
such as VARCHAR or defining
the column as COLUMN_FORMAT=DYNAMIC; this
does not work with columns stored on disk. For disk-based
columns, you may be able to do so by reordering one or more
of the table's disk-based columns such that the
combined width of all but the disk-based column defined last
in the CREATE TABLE statement
used to create the table does not exceed 8188 bytes, less
any possible rounding performed for some data types such as
CHAR or
VARCHAR; otherwise it is necessary to use
memory-based storage for one or more of the offending column
or columns instead.
BIT column storage per table.
The maximum combined width for all
BIT columns used in a given
NDB table is 4096.
FIXED column storage.
NDB Cluster supports a maximum of 128 TB per fragment of
data in FIXED columns.
