  5. Perform the desired administrative functions.

Viewing datastore statistics

The Datastore maintains statistics about the data stored for an application, such as how many entities there are of a given kind or how much space is used by property values of a given type. You can view these statistics either in the Google Developers Console , under Cloud Datastore > Dashboard , or in the Administration Console , under Datastore > Statistics .

Quotas and limits

For information on Datastore quotas and limits, see the Quotas page and the Quota Details section of the Administration Console . In addition to these quotas, the following limits apply to Datastore entities:

Limit Amount
Maximum entity size 1 megabyte
Maximum transaction size 10 megabytes
Maximum number of index entries for an entity 20000
Maximum number of bytes in composite indexes for an entity 2 megabytes
