Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> BLOB vs. B-File
Hi everyone -
I'm looking for some information based on your experiences. We have an application that has large objects to store. They are wondering which way would be better - to store them as BLOBs within the database, or as bfiles outside the database. My instincts tell me BLOBs would be better, but I have no actual facts to base this on.
Does anyone have any information or know of any documentation I could review that might help define the differences - re. coding programs to access the objects, performance, administration, etc.?
Thanks -
Lisa
