Re: Database vs File System

If you have millions of documents it may be better to have them stored in the db. If you have terabytes of documents that are pretty much static/read-only then you may want to have a separate db for the images and one for your data.

We have got a requirement to keep all the documents on repository. We are
looking on the possibility of keeping documents on Database or filesysytem.

Could you please let me know your views which one I should go for.

Regards,

Dhanvir
