Adding attachment to couchDB

[asgardar]

Hi,
We currently have an application which is using IBM Cloudant db. we only store attachments in the database. I am doing a POC to replace CloudantDB to CouchDB on Azure. I have few questio.

1. Can we add attachment on CouchDB? What is the total file size I can store for entire account?
2. What APIs I can use to add attachments into CouchDB? We are going to use Java.

Thanks,

Yes, you can attach files to the database

and can set the limit of the attachments

This question is really specific and we can only offer support and help on basic and most frequent application configurations. Always based on the default configuration or on our guides. Probably someone with more experience and knowledge about that specific tool can help you better than we can.

We suggest you to post your question on the official support forums so others can help you with your issue.
