Storing Images : DB or File System –

by

Putting all of those images in your database will make it very, very large. This means your DB engine will be busy caching all those images (a task it’s not really designed for) when it could be caching hot application data instead.

Leave the file caching up to the OS and/or your reverse proxy – they’ll be better at it.
