Hey All,
I've recently been doing research of whether or not to store uploading files
to a database or to just save them to a file and save the filename to the
db. I have read that postgres becomes very unstable with 2mb+ files but that
mysql can easily handle large files.

I work with a project that allows 300+ employees to upload images and
documents. They need to be highly secured and they are used by multiple
sites including some vmware images, so I figure that by using a mysql
database to store the files it will keep them protected and keep everything
tightly tied together.

But I still wonder if there are any cons to storing the files in a
databases?



Thanks,

- Sean
