Following on from the thread "questions on serving big file & SQL statement parsing", I have a related question:
Where do you store your uploads? I can think of two approaches: 1) In the DB, store the name of the server to which your file has been uploaded 2) Store your upload in a shared partition (eg on a SAN, NFS, iSCSI/OCFS2) The advantage I see in the second approach is redundancy, the disadvantage is that there will be a slight performance cost. Anybody have recommendations/war-stories about these or other approaches? thanks Clint
