For those waiting...

I just wanted to give all of you who are waiting on Parts III and IV of the EBS series a quick update on what's going on.  I'm doing my last round of edits on Part III and starting to write Part IV.  Overall, there is less content for these two parts, but I'm willing to do a Part V - FAQ if there enough loose end questions.

The reason things are so slow in coming out right now is that we had one of the other development leads leave (in addition to about 3 or 4 others since the beginning of the year) and I inherited a couple of messes.  I've been swamped trying to get the client happy and keep the environment stable.  I'm working on these as much as I can, but I'll be honest that there are days that I just don't get the chance. 

The upside is that all of this stress is in dealing with a public facing SharePoint site on a shared MOSS instance so I should have some good options for future blogs.  In the meantime, I'll keep cussing SharePoint and working on these blogs.

Thanks for your patience,

Kyle

Thanks for the great series. Can't wait to read the rest.

Out of curiosity, Did you the SQL server 2008 with SharePoint ? SQL server 2008 is supposed to provide out of the box external storage for BLOB. I am exploring options on creatin EBS such as yours or using SQL Server 2008. Not sure when it will be officially supported.

Thanks

From everything I've heard this will be implemented in the next version of MOSS via a change in how SQL Server stores BLOB. What I haven't heard anything on is if using SQL Server 2008 with MOSS 2007 will give you this functionallity now.

Thanks,
Kyle

Thanks for writing this up. It's good reading and I hadn't heard that Microsoft had added this secondary file store. I'd be interested in how companies are going to migrate vast amounts of file shares to this new model. It seems a more appropriate model 1)metadata in sql and 2) files in the file system. I'm familiar with a lot of engineering applications that use that model to effectively scale the storage (large numbers of files).

Thanks
