Users and Roles Maximum 2,147,483,638
Tables Maximum per clustered table 32 tables
Maximum per database Unlimited

Note:

The limit on how long a SQL statement can be depends on many factors, including database configuration, disk space, and memory

Note:

When an object instance exists in memory, there is no fixed limit on the number of attributes in the object. But the maximum total amount of memory consumed by an object instance is 4 GB.When an object instance is inserted into a table, the attributes are exploded into separate columns in the table, and the Oracle 1000-column limit applies.
