SQL 2008 Filestream
Mar 26 2008, 10:08 AM EDT
Has anyone worked with SQL 2008 Filestream yet? We're working on a web-based filestream project where we'd use Poweredge servers and a PowerVault MD3000i. Once the MD3000i was full we'd start adding more. Thanks. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

I haven't had the chance yet to work with SQL Server 2008 Filestream. It sounds like a very compelling technology that allows for BLOBs to be "in" the database, but leverage an NTFS type filesystem. I found a couple of blogs that had some great info (including performance testing) and I have included the URLs below.

What resources have you found for working with SQL 2008 Filestream?

In terms of using the MD3000i - I would expect that it should work fine.
