We have requirement to store about 1 TB to 1.5 TB of image files in TIFF format and provide search functionality on the basis of metadata. Is it advisable to use SharePoint for such sort of requirement? What would be the performance impact ?
Note : There will be on time upload of image data and there will be no further upload or modification to data.
Thanks Mark for your reply. I believe size would be less than 5 MB er file. There will be Maximum 10 users to this system. This data is to be kept for some audit purpose and will not be downloaded concurrently most of the time. Users would be accessing this on need basis.
I read about RBS. Also it is mentioned that total size of content db along with total blob size should not exceed 200 GB for better perfomance. It is also mentioned that content db size can be scaled to 4 TB . I am confused.
Would it be workable solution if we split data volum with multiple site collections and implement cross site collection serach ?
