  | 1) Single, JDBC based cache loader
  | 2) Uploading an image will result in the servlet converting the file to a 
byte[] and putting this in cache (so it gets stored in the db)

your cache listener writes the byte[] to your filesystem in a specified place, 
in the file format specified.

listeners on each instance in your cluster, so the file is created on the 
filesystems on each cluster node.

Thanks for the info. I will try this approach.
Some concerns though....

1) Since image will be uploaded and stored in the DB via admin part, can I use 
the same BLOB column when I configure JDBC based cache loader. I mean are the 
BLOBs compatible (as in case with File cache loader the map is serialized so 
image file and cached file are not the same, is it same true for JDBC loader?) 
If they are not compatible, then I am going to have to waste some DB space 
(duplicate BLOBS in DB one BLOB is app specific, one is for cache right?)....

2) In order to evict an item when a new image with a same name is uploaded (an 
update) will I need to have a listener perform this action logic?

If I understand this correctly, the listener would add/remove/update blobs in 
the cache every time admin action adds/removes/updates an image. Then we rely 
on cache achitecture to propagate same behavior across the cluster.

So we have add/update/remove image (in admin)

1) store/restore/reupdate image as a BLOB in DB (depending on concern outlined 
in #1)
2) add image as byte[] to cache
3) action in #2 will notify the listeners on all nodes and recreate/remove 
image from byte[] onto a disk
