I have asked two developers about the best approach for data management in Appian.
One usually uses Datastore Entities and other uses Sync Recordtypes. But, I have seen that there is a third configuration where a RecordType is related to a Datastore Entity (this disable recordtypes relationship).
Which best approach is my dilemma.
I have heard recordtypes limitations related to database (some datatypes capacity limits) schema, 2 millions rows storage limitation and sync issues.
I haven't found documentation about best practices for data management.
What do you recommend? Some prefers CDT others Recordtypes.

hi Darwin Pou it all again depends on the data how much are you processing or querying into your application? My thoughts would be.
Smaller or Medium-sized Applications: Synced Record Types balance performance and ease of use.
Large-scale or Complex Applications: DSEs with custom queries and CDTs provide the most flexibility and control.
Mixed Use Cases: Using Record Types with DSEs can blend both approaches, but you’ll need to manage the relationships yourself.
Mixed Use Case. Do you mean unsynced recordtypes?. Do you have related documentation for developer?
I'm trying to test a Parent interface with a list and Child interface for CRUD.
Hello! When I decided to renovate my backyard, I was looking for a material that would meet all my requirements - durable, stylish and easy to maintain. And I found it at Tile Merchant - exterior porcelain paving was the perfect choice for my project. It looks great, regardless of the weather, and always remains as attractive as on the first day of installation. I chose a classic version in a neutral shade, and now everyone who comes to visit admires the beauty of my yard. I recommend this material to everyone who is looking for quality and style!
This means that depending on what you need to do, you will use synced records, unsynced records, or DSEs with CDT's..
