Hi @Sumesh Sukumaran, Yiu can potentially store millions of user entries in OPA, it depends on how many attributes you have per one. If you're talking just unique ids in a hash map it will likely work. I'm not sure what you mean by a centralized OPA cache. The cache in OPA is its own memory. You can have OPAL fetch data from wherever you want into OPA. Including from a centralized source of course. You can also use http.send in your rego policies, but in general I wouldn't recommend it, as it has great potential of hurting system stability and performance.

If you run into memory limitations in OPA you can shard the information between multiple OPA instances via OPAL topics

@Or Weis Thanks 👍
Hi @Or Weis @Asaf Cohen, Is there a provision to limit the size of the OPA cache? I have seen in one of the threads you mentioned beyond 5 GB it might fail.
