This is a design doubt am facing, I have a collection of 1500 images which are to be displayed on an asp.net page, the images to be displayed differ from one page to another, the count of these images will increase in the time to come,
a.) is it a good idea to have the images on the database, but the round trip time to fetch the images from the database might be high.
b.) is it good to have all the images on a directory, and have a virtual file system over it, and the application will access the images from the directory
Do we have in particular any design strategy in a traditional database for fetching images with the least round trip time, does any solution other than usage of a traditional database exists?
ps: I use SQL Server to store these images.
