  • File Attachments: Databases can now store files and images

    The issue I've run into re: storing files as BLOBs in a database has been the "impedance mismatch" coming from others wanting to use tools that act on filesystem objects against the files stored in the database.

    That aside I've had good experiences for some applications. It's certainly a lot easier than keeping a filesystem hierarchy in sync w/ the database, particularly if you're trying to replicate the database's native access control semantics to the filesystem. (So many applications get this wrong and leave their entire BLOB store, sitting out on a filesystem, completely exposed to filesystem-level actors with excessive permission.)

    Microsoft has an interesting feature in SQL Server to expose BLOBs in a FUSE-like manner: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/b...

    I see postgresqlfs[0] on Github, but it's unclear exactly what it does and it looks like it has been idle for at least 6 years.
