Using a jdbc database as backend storage [message #530263] |

I need to store resources/files into database blobs.
Since this is for prototyping the (eclipse) application, I need to be flexible enough to switch the backend to something more appropriate in the long-term.
I am sure ecf can provide this flexibility...
Furthermore, I would like to implement a new jdbc storage provider, if that that does not exist yet...
Any thoughts on this or alternatives?

Hi Erdal,
It is quite possible to use ECF to provide the communications with a
remote database...and this would allow you a good deal of flexibility
(i.e. the database can/could be replaced on the server side without
affecting the client). Perhaps this is what you are interested in doing.
It would also be possible to create a jdbc storage provider as an ECF
container. I'm not sure whether you would want to make this provider an
implementer of one of the existing ECF APIs (e.g. datashare/channnels,
or remote services, etc), or perhaps create a new (JDBC) API.
I'm interested in your use case(s), though. For example...do you
expect/want clients to use JDBC calls persist/query? Or do you want to
separate the client from jdbc and provide some new/other client-side
mechanism to save/retrieve data (e.g. rpc and objects?).
Thanks,
Scott
