Player Data Limits...

I am a bit confused on play data limits.

I have read that there are 10 keys available to each player

and they can each store 300,000 bytes at any one time.

Questions>

a) Am I interpreting this correctly?

b) Do these numbers change when I switch plans?

c) Do I have access to historic values associated with a player key?

d) How long is this data retained?

e) Is it a common design for people to use you scripts to create cold storage

for historic values elsewhere in Azure?

I am developing an app that collects GPS data associated with a session.

Obviously the current session is of special importance.

Having said that, review of historic data from sessions would also

be nice.

Wondering about the best design for this using Playfab and/or

other Azure mechanisms.

Thanks

a) Am I interpreting this correctly?

The Player Data limit: max Key size is 100 bytes and max Value size is 300,000 bytes. There's not currently a limit on number of keys.

b) Do these numbers change when I switch plans?

Besides the Enterprise tier, there is no difference on limit between plans. If you have the needs to expand the limit, you can upgrade to Enterprise tier and discuss with our team to decide the final numbers.

c) Do I have access to historic values associated with a player key?

Currently, we don't have such feature, if you want it, please feel free to post a feature request on it.

d) How long is this data retained?

The Data will be retained until you delete it.

e) Is it a common design for people to use you scripts to create cold storage for historic values elsewhere in Azure?

PlayFab is a complete backend platform for live games that may not be well suited to your needs. To store the historic values, you may need an external Database.
