InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
The reason for limiting this is a temporary measure to ensure the stability of the network; too many nominators would make it possible for the Phragmén calculation for the validator election to cause nodes to OOM. I recommend reading https://hackmd.io/wC6XTy36QsCmkfolX38Miw to understand what the problem is, and https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/issues/9511 to follow along with what is being done to fix it (tl;dr is multi-block elections and long term a staking-specific parachain).
