Architecture overview
Simple overview of NocoDB architecture
By default, if NC_DB is not specified, then SQLite will be used to store your metadata. We suggest users to separate the metadata and user data in different databases.
| Project Type | Metadata stored in | Data stored in |
|---|---|---|
| Create new base | NC_DB | NC_DB |
| Create new base with External Database | NC_DB | External Database |
| Create new base from Excel | NC_DB | NC_DB |
