Hi @ all,
i just want to know if it is useful to store a lot of images an movies in an oracle database using blobs. Are there any performance issues that i have to expect? The amount of data is approx. 20Gb. An seperate tablespace for thie image table would be used.

Do you have any other suggestions for storing images and movies?

What do you think about this?

Thanks for every reply.

Regards
eigeneachse

This was meant in general. I thought about IO issues or something like this.

Thank you very much for the Link. I will take a look at this.
