Compression Advice |
Wed, Mar 12 2008 12:46 PM | Permanent Link |
edhrx | Hi,
I am migrating an application off mssql to ElevateDb and one of the things the application did was saved all data changes when a user posted by gathering together the data from a buffer record (turned all the datatypes to the string equivalent) and then used a third party compressor ( Tcompress ) to compress it and then stuff it into a blob field. Ok...In the ElevateDB app because everything is a string should I just put it into CLOB and let ElevateDb handle the compression Would I get better compression ? best wishes Ed. |

Plus, you'll avoid having to worry about the compression from the standpoint of any accessing applications, which will simply just see the data as a CLOB column. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
