Jira Service Desk Database Sizing for new installation

[Thomas Dalessandro]

Hello,

Would anyone be able to tell me how to estimate the size of the database for Service Desk Server? Its going to be a small instance in house.

I can't find anything about sizing the database in the documentation.

Thanks!

Service Desk is an application that adds functions to a plain Jira.  For SD, I'd take a core Jira install, and add maybe 10% to give SD that extra bit it might need.

Hi, Thomas! 

I can provide a small installation size: 

~500k issues (minimum 3 comment per issue)

~30-40 custom fields 

~ 15 projects

~ 400 users

Mysql dump is 12GB, database size 19-21 GB (include indexes)

And for testing env used a H2 database (max ~10k issues, 10 users) - it is differents from 1.8GB to 5GB. Size changing because for generate data I have used data generator, hence custom field has a big value for sizes.

For my home installation I reserved 7GB for database. It is extra enough (~300MB for ~600 issues, ~40 custom fields, 3 users).

Cheers,
