CMS Data Requirements
|
|
|
| We are in the process of converting an "asp web site" to CMS. Our existing
web site has many PDF's, images, etc. These all reside on the server in a
Folder\file. Since CMS is a database driven architecture, I was wondering if
anyone could assist me with some sort of estimate of how much disk space I
will need.
I know that this is hard to do especiialy since CMS can version postings
which increases the database size. I also know that CMS stores images, PDFs,
etc as BLOBS in the database. I have no idea of the algorithm or conversion
process used.
We will be using SQLServer 2005 database.
Can anyone help me with a formula or a conversion of text files, pdfs,
images to CMS blob files? I know my file sizes and estimate or number of
files needing to convert to CMS.
Thanks
Tom

| Hi Tom,
you should better post this question to an SQL related newsgroups.
As you mentioned: MCMS stores the binaries in blobs.
A sharepoint expert should be able to give you a formula for this.
Cheers,
Stefan
