In umbraco site can we store pdf and videos in azure blob rather than sql database?
Hi All,
I have used Umbraco 4.7.0 and created a site on Windows Azure which uses different media files as well as pdf for different pages of the site. At present it is uploaded in media section of umbraco and it maintains the sql database to store it.
But we want to store all the media files(videos and pdf ) in BLOB of Azure can it be possible to store it on azure blob in place of sql database.
You could change the datatype used in the Image and File media types, so that it saves the stream to a blob instead of the file system. I beleive there are already some S3 storage datatypes out there that could be used as an example.
