Hi all,

I have a number of rarely accessed tables which can contain a large
amount of data. These tables reside in a central repository which is
size constrained. I would like to be able to export and purge the data
from these tables and repopulate them when they need to be accessed.
We have a different facility for storing large amounts of data. This
facility has Java APIs to accept an input stream and store its
contents. I would like to use this facility to store the exported data
from my tables.

The question is how? So far the data pump methods I have seen in
Oracle work with file system. Is there a way to return a java stream
via JDBC (much like you can with a BLOB) that contains the contents of
a table? This needs to work both ways. So, from the stream, I need to
be able to repopulate the tables.

I guess what I am asking is if there is a way to internally convert a
query like (select * from table1) into a BLOB and back.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
