Maximum number of connections for an ODP
| Item |
Upper limit |
| Number of connections for an OceanBase Database Proxy (ODP) |
You can specify the client_max_connections parameter of an ODP to specify the maximum number of connections allowed for the ODP. The default value is 8192.
Note
You can increase the number of ODP nodes or the value of the client_max_connections parameter to increase the maximum number of connections for an ODP cluster.

Maximum number of partition replicas
| Item |
Upper limit |
| Number of partition replicas for an OBServer node |
No upper limit is imposed.
Note
The number of partition replicas for each OBServer node can be estimated based on the size of the memory for the tenant. About 20,000 tablets are supported by 1 GB of memory.

Limitations
The following table describes the limitations for using the physical standby database feature.
| Item |
Description |
| Maximum number of standby tenants supported by the primary tenant |
No upper limit is imposed. |
| Whether homogeneous resources are required for the primary and standby tenants |
Resources of the primary and standby tenants do not need to be homogeneous. We recommend that you use the same resource specifications for the primary and standby tenants. |
| System parameters |
The parameters of the primary tenant are independent of those of a standby tenant, and parameter modifications are not physically synchronized. After you modify a parameter of the primary tenant, you must assess whether to modify the corresponding parameter of the standby tenants. |
| System variables |
System variables of the primary and standby tenants are physically synchronized. If you modify a system variable of the primary tenant, the system synchronously modifies the corresponding system variable of the standby tenants. |
| Users and passwords |
You can create users and change user passwords only in the primary tenant. The updated information is synchronized to the standby tenants. |
| Read/write operations |
A standby tenant supports only read operations. |
| Minor and major compactions |
Minor compactions in the primary tenant are independent of those in the standby tenants. Major compactions are not performed in a standby tenant. Instead, the major compaction information is synchronized from the primary tenant to the standby tenants. |
| Switchover |
All replicas of log streams of the standby tenants must be online. |
| Failover |
All replicas of log streams of the standby tenants must be online. |
