I am in the process of adding a part to my website which would include
pictures, pdf files, txt files, and excel files. The files sizes
could be anywhere on average of 100k to 2mb. Do you think I should be
uploading the files to a MySQL database or to my server?
I have head that there are pros and cons to both, but have never
really received a definitive answer that helps much. I appreciate all
your opinions on the pros and cons of both.
