Hi-

Has anyone had experience configuring an Oracle DB to store blobs or BFiles to an object based device? It seems as though by default blobs get stored inline in the database. And BFiles are required to be managed outside of the database, but must reside in an accessible file system. What it someone wanted to put this data in a "Black Box" that was only accessible via an API? Where would they place the Oracle "hooks" to this data?

Thanks-
Ace
