Number of people who can update/Insert Confluence Database at the same time?

yoshihiro.hagihara October 28, 2024

I'm trying to embed a database on a Confluence page and have multiple people enter data. I'd like to know how many people can update/insert data at the same time, and what happens if more than that number of people update/insert at the same time. Is it limited to 12 people, like with Confluence page?

Hi @yoshihiro.hagihara 

Confluence databases offer flexible concurrency capabilities, differing from Confluence pages' 12-user editing limit.

Specifically, there is no hardcoded limit on simultaneous users for database updates and inserts.

Confluence employs optimistic locking for concurrency control, allowing multiple users to update or insert data concurrently.

However, this last write wins mechanism means that when two users modify the same entry, the last save overrides previous changes.

While changes become visible to other users in near real-time, concurrent modifications to the same data may lead to conflicts (two users try to edit the same database entry at the same time, the second user will be prompted to resolve conflict)

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!
Thank you very much and have a great one!
Warm regards
