 I am putting together a device that need a lot of local non-volatile data and uses a lot of flash on my NRF52833. I am running NRF Connect SDK 2.6.0.

&lt;p&gt;Yes, you need the Peripheral/ GATT server functionality.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I recommend to&amp;nbsp;take a look at this guide on how to do&amp;nbsp;Memory footprint optimization:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.6.1/nrf/test_and_optimize/optimizing/memory.html"&gt;https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.6.1/nrf/test_and_optimize/optimizing/memory.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
