    This is a pretty hard question to answer without further context. You can certainly store files this large (or larger) in Appian with no issues, but it sounds like you are hesitant to do that for some reason. Can you give more information about what you are considering?

    Thank Peter for your kind reply and sorry about not adding Appian on question.

    Yes, Appian itself is having this kind of support and sure we should use appian as file storage. But, Once the file size get increase, we will be require to increase space in Appian server, Which we dont want and also the bigger will be size, we may face slowness issue on environment.

    So, We wanted to avoid this situation.

    It sounds like you anticipate total storage volume demands increasing in the future - can you describe more about that?  The total size of individual files doesn't make any difference at all, versus the total volume you anticipate having in the future.  For instance, if your total volume would plateau at a few gigabytes then there should be no issue.  But if you're planning to add 2 Terabytes per year and keep those documents forever, then it would likely be much cheaper to seek out external bulk document storage solutions.
