| hi,
I had a query on sql database, we know we usually store files of
different type in sql database and its helpful for searching and
retrieving the documents from the database, but one query i had was
related to the amount of space required to store the files in the
database. For Eg., say i have a word document which is of 5Mb thn how
much space does it occupy in the database if i store it in binary
format
b'coz i know it'll occupy less than the original file size but i
wanted
to knw exactly how much space it'll take in the database and y?
my mail-id is apondu@gmail.com, if someone knows the answer then
please
let me know
Thanks for the response and help people here are providing
Regards,
Govardhan.
