Colleague and I were going through ShP limitations. When we realized we can't find anywhere maximum size of document library.
I don't ask for a number of documents, as that information can be found here.
Documents | 30,000,000 per library
I am asking of maximum size as capacity of doc library.
Is it limited only by size of Site collection or there is some other size limitation?

1Like you mention, Site collection limits and content database limits (and perhaps userlimits). – Christoffer Jan 24 '18 at 13:20

So as I predicted, by Microsoft recommendation 200GB limitation of content database and by it limitation of site collection, we can say limit for one document library is 200 GB? – Danilo Jan 24 '18 at 13:28

1Partially for the content database, as that's Microsoft's recommendation but there are a lot of circumstances such as versioning, maximum numbers of objects in a content database etc. And the list view threshold. Take a look at Microsoft's whitepapers regarding software limits and plan your setup. technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt493258(v=office.16).aspx – Christoffer Jan 24 '18 at 13:38
I think content database is your limit and if you want to use this library for archive, you don't have any limits at database size. Maybe only number of items.
