Hi all,
I want to do the following; save a set of 100-200 (or even more) binary
files into a single DB file. The binary files are of 100-200 (or a bit
more :-) ) MB each. My requirements are:
1) Many clients should be able to connect to the database to save their
file. Clients are actually client programs that calculate the binary
file. So the db server must be able to handle the concurrency of requests.
2) The file would be portable and movable (i.e. copy-paste will do, no
special arrangement to move around)
Ideally I would like to provide client programs with a stream to read
and write files. I guess the files should be stored as blob records in a
single table within the database. So my question is whether all this is
possible, since I am not very familiar with SQLite (I have been
redirected here). Just to straighten things, I know this is not the
orthodox use of a DBMS, i.e. I should store my nice scientific data in
tables and define good relations and suff. I really do believe in this
scheme. However at this point, I have to provide evidence that such an
anorthodox solution is also feasible (not to mention that I have to
compare access performance with flat binary files :-/ ).
TIA
