Who has access to this feature:
Available on Enterprise accounts

 

Attention: Some aspects of this release are currently in Beta and will be rolled out gradually. No action is required on your part.

 

The journey of mondayDB, the proprietary data engine behind the WorkOS platform, continues to reach new heights. mondayDB 3.0 is here! 💥

 

 

How it works

While mondayDB 2.0 was dedicated to scale, mondayDB 3.0 takes it a giant leap further. Built on a unique technology called DuckDB, mondayDB 3.0 makes querying massive datasets nearly instant, enabling a 10x to 1000x jump in platform scale. It introduces Data Sets, a new work surface that supports up to 10M items in a single table, while delivering the same smooth, familiar monday.com experience.

mondayDB 3.0 was designed to address three core needs:

  • Flexibility: support for unique workflows with different board structures
  • Dynamic: frequent structural changes to workflows are made easier and more efficient.
  • Elasticity: built to scale to billions of boards and ever-increasing connections between them.

 

Release timeline

mondayDB 3.0 is being released in two phases:

  • Phase 1: Focuses on the Scale of our Products, and Portfolio scale to 5,000 Projects
  • Phase 2: Focuses on Agentic use cases, increases the item scale to 10M items, and the batch action scale to 10,000 items

 

Note: The above timeline outlines current plans; however, it is not a commitment. Plans may change at monday.com's sole discretion.

 

Capabilities it provides

Enterprise accounts can look forward to a significant increase in platform limits, enabling larger, more complex workflows than ever before. You can build larger boards and dashboards than ever before, enabling a 10x to 1000x increase in scale.

The initial scale capabilities include:

  • Up to 10M items with Data Set
  • 5,000 projects in portfolio/boards in a dashboard, with 10,000 in upcoming releases

 

What to expect

Boards and Dashboards running on mondayDB 3.0 will load significantly faster, especially for large boards or dashboards with more than 10,000 items, subitems, or connections. As scale capabilities roll out, Data Sets support up to 10M items, with the same experience you would expect from a 1,000-item board.
 

Note: Dashboard item limits apply to both items in the connected boards and items linked from other boards

FAQ's

Do I need to do anything to get mondayDB 3.0?

The upgrade to mondayDB 3.0 is automatic and gradual. No action is required on your part.

Will my boards and dashboards load faster right away?

For most accounts whose boards contain fewer than 1,000 items, the improvement may not be immediately noticeable. Accounts with larger boards (10K+ items, subitems, or connections) should see a significant improvement in latency.

Does mondayDB 3.0 give me access to 10M items?

Yes. Enterprise plan admins can create a Data Set, which supports up to 10 million items in a single table. Data Set is available across all products on the Enterprise plan.

Does mondayDB 3.0 cost money?

All mondayDB 3.0 performance enhancements are free of charge. In the future, additional scale functionalities that have not yet been developed may require payment.
