There are several ways to store large form data in Laravel:

  1. Using Session: You can store the form data in the session. This is useful when the form spans multiple pages or if you want to preserve the form data even if the user navigates away from the page. You can store the form data in the session using the session() helper function.
  2. Using a database: If you need to store the form data permanently, you can store it in a database table. You can create a new table to store the form data or add fields to an existing table. You can use Laravel's Eloquent ORM to interact with the database.
  3. Using files: If the form data includes files (such as images or documents), you can store them on the server and store the file paths in the database or session. Laravel's Filesystem allows you to easily store and retrieve files on the server.
  4. Using cache: You can also store the form data in the cache. Laravel provides support for multiple cache drivers, such as Redis and Memcached. You can store the form data in the cache using the Cache facade.


Choose the method that best suits your application's requirements and scalability needs.
