Your cache will be flushed from time to time and retrieving all binaries
from database can have an effect - which depends of the size of content
and load of course. Maybe http://www.moremx.com could be a suitable
provider for you - beside the standard download those providers offer
also real streaming (which enables you to skip to a certain point of
your video, you don't have to wait until it's downloaded), but external
providers are only profitable when you're having many concurrent users
and the expected traffic and storage size is more than your webserver is
allowed to handle :)

Thanks for your input. Do you have experience with binaries stored in and
outside of the database? Is this really a performance issue on the server,
aren't the files cached after the first request (after that I guess its equal
from point of performance if I store it in the File system or the database)?
Our webserver has a max of 100Mbit/s of upload. I think (hope) that this is
sufficient for the moment, however using an external provider is also a
solution. Do you know by any chance good providers that offer good bandwitdh
for streaming?
Cheers
Claudio

Betreff: Re: [magnolia-user] Using DMS for managing Streaming Content /
Alternatives?
afaik you're already able to configure a different databases per
repository. in case of using the dms i would recommend deactivate
versioning, because there is no sense at all to use it for static files.
storing binaries outside the database will help to increase your
performance. using the dms for mutimedia content is okay unless there is
no huge traffic for your webserver,
for high-traffic-websites i'd rather try a solution without using
magnolia for storing binaries. there are several providers which offer
cheap webspace based on clustered servers for streaming content.
depending on the interface you could build your own paragraph for
uploading and choosing the files.

Hi magnolians
I am looking for a solution to store multimedia-content outside of the Website,
so that editors can organize the content easier. The website powered by
magnolia will serve more and more multimedia content in future, so I am also
concerned about scalability, bandwidth and database size.
Does anyone have experience with the DMS module in combination with streaming
movies and Audio? Are there any alternatives like some multimedia databases (I
did not find much useful stuff on the net).
When/If using the DMS, I would like to store the multimedia content separately
(in a separate MYSQL database), in order to create separate backups and have
separate storage locations. Is this possible?
Many Thanks
Claudio
