When you use different data sources in Quicksight tool, there are certain limits that apply based on data sources.
You can use up to 25GB of total size specified in manifest file. This limit is dependent on the file size after it is imported to SPICE.
The number of files supported in manifest file is 1000 and you also have some limit on number of columns in each file.
When you are querying a large table, it is recommended that you use Where or Having condition to reduce the number of data imported to SPICE. Query result imported into SPICE should not exceed 25 GB.
You can deselect some of the columns while importing the data into SPICE.
In case your data source contains data type which are not supported in Quicksight, AWS Quicksight skips those values.
