DB - File Storage BI question (I think !)

  • Our company is planning to store the projects they have been creating for years. The projects contain many different kinds of files (Adobe, Microsoft Office e.t.c). The storage and the interface application should allow the projects (Hundereds of Analysis documents also) to be reviewed, modified and saved back in the same original format. Initial data will be around 1 TB and expected to grow.

    Is this something an SQL Server Database can handle ?. What would be the good Software-Hardware suggestion ? Software to allow the above mentioned modifications ?

    Thanks for any input.

  • A couple of Project Management applications that I know support this feature as letting the user to download and upload files. Users edit files themselves.

    I would also advise you to check out SharePoint 2007, It is integrated with Microsoft Office.

    How ? What do you use to edit the files and save back again in the same format ?

    Thanks.

  • It works like this:

    The web application allows users to download a file from the server to their computers. This code vary by application. Users edit files using Microsoft Office installed on their computers and the new copy is a file on their computer. Then they use the application again to upload a file back to the server and then again, it vary by application. Some would overwrite the original file, some would create a new version of it.
