Optimize SharePoint Storage: How Version History Limits Can Help

Posted on 1 September 2024Updated on 15 September 2024by Nikki Chapple

In my recent blog post, Hidden Connection Between SharePoint File Versioning and Storage, I delved into the mechanics of file versioning in SharePoint. Each version is a full copy of the file, meaning that large files can rapidly consume storage space. For instance, a 200MB PowerPoint file with 10 versions will use up 2GB of storage. If you have 500 such files, that’s a whopping 1TB of storage consumed. This versioning system can lead to SharePoint becoming cluttered with outdated and often irrelevant file versions. However, it’s not all bad news. Microsoft has recently introduced Version History Limits (Preview), which offers better control over file versions at both the organization and site levels. With these new limits, you can optimize SharePoint storage by deleting excessive versions, thereby freeing up and making better use of your valuable storage space.

Let’s explore how to use Version History Limits to optimize SharePoint storage and enhance your document management efficiency.
