Hi All,

I just wanted to confirm is there any upper limit w.r.t size when we are moving data with AEM Bulk Import tool. I think there is no limit and we can move TB’s of data in one run but still wanted to confirm.

Hi ​@gagandeepsaluja 
Adobe's public documentation does not specify a fixed maximum total dataset size (for example, a TB limit per job). Bulk Import is intended for large-scale asset ingestion, and Adobe's asset-ingestion guidance identifies it for hundreds of GB to TB-scale imports. This should not be interpreted as unlimited or as a guarantee that any dataset will complete in one run.

For a multi-TB migration, I'd recommend running a dry run and a representative pilot first. Consider splitting the import into logical batches if that will make progress tracking, recovery, and validation easier. The feasible size and duration depend on the specific import and environment.
