Paul - the collaboration refers to databases that are used for about equal
amounts of read\write, as opposed to document repository (think document
centres and record centres) which is a mostly read, rarely write database - and
Microsoft supports up to 4TB in those types of databases - with
Thank Victor. I couldn't agree with you more! So much damn contradictory info.
And thanks for the explanation, Ishai.
All the files already exist on a file share. Users download large files to
their system to work on to avoid network latency.
My goal is simply to give them access to this file
If the user is off the network, doesn't that mean that sharepoint will not be
available either? Or is sharepoint available through the internet - which only
raises more worries - a CAD file would make a dent in most download allowances,
not to mention potential speed issues with the uplink...

SharePoint is available over the Internet. I mean when the user is not directly
connected to the network.
I agree speed will be an issue. But this is more about providing remote access
when required. They need read/write capability.
I've never seen an example of a BDC connected list in action
What about something like DropBox?

SharePoint is available over the Internet.
We don't want any third party solutions or off-site storage.
From what I can find (and information is hard to come by) I can bind the BDC
model to an assembly, which means I can write custom actions for file
interactions.
Is it hard just to expose them as a list (filename,size,modified date)
Which is why I suggested Drop Box.
Offsite back = good
Over the Internet access from virtually all popular O/Ss = good
And it integrates into NASs, file servers, etc seamlessly without affecting
what you do at the SPS level or anything else.
But I completely understand if a business
I was hoping to a void a third-party solution, Ishai, but the DocAve solution
does look very good.
Nothing's going to solve latency when off-network.
I might look at demoing both and will let you know.

Paul,
Have you considered using FILESTREAM storage on the SQL server
for storing the files as files, while still keeping the benefits of housing
them in a SharePoint document library?
Cheers,

Hi James,
I'm open to both. My understanding is they want to a way to easily access or
dump files (when offline) for these types of files.

library to the local PC?
Yes - as far as I know it will copy the entire library to the local machine for
offline use. Dumping of files into the same path will cause OneDrive for
Business upload them in the
My experience with OneDrive for Business has been very poor. It only supports a
limited number of files and folders in a sync location (20,000 in your My Site
library, 5,000 in other libraries -

Well I can disable download availability per library thank goodness.
But the following limitations are potential blockers unless there's an easy way
to expand out to new databases as each one fills up.
