Hi Sam, nope. Content information (images, text, files ...) will be stored in a content repository beside our normal (SQL) Database.
A content repository is an information management system that provides various services for storing, accessing, and managing content. In addition to a hierarchically structured storage, common services of a content repository are versioning, access control, full text searching, and event monitoring (see http://jackrabbit.apache.org/frequently-asked-questions.html ). In our current configuration of Jackrabbit we have to differentiate between file and other content. Because files are normally larger than normal text i adviced Jackrabbit to store files directly on the file system and create a reference in the repository (that have performance reasons). On the other side text content is directly stored in the repository nodes (each item in a repository is called node, a node have different attributes which contains the content and metadata). Hope that answered your question?!
