########## docs/modules/servers/partials/architecture/blobstore.adoc: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,102 @@ +James stores large, non-indexable binary payloads in a BlobStore. Typical examples +are message bodies, attachments, deleted messages retained by the vault, and mail +queue payloads. + +Mailbox, Mail Queue, and Deleted Messages Vault components rely on it. + +Server components usually depend on the higher-level `BlobStore`. `BlobStoreDAO` +is the lower-level virtual storage abstraction implemented by concrete storage +connectors such as memory, file, Cassandra, Postgres, and S3 compatible object +stores. It allows James to compose storage features such as encryption or +compression independently of the storage connector. + +== Abstraction layers + +Most James components use `BlobStore`, which is responsible for saving content Review Comment: So a single Blobstore is bound to a single logical bucket name and component builders who want/need several "buckets" will need several blobstores Allowing to create "organization" within the blobstore bucket can be done but requires custom blobstore implementation -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
