[icecast-dev] Icecast & DB storage

[Scott Manley]

Yay! I went to Glasgow uni many years ago!

Anyway...
This sounds supisciously close to what I developed for
myplay.com - for efficiency purposes we used oracle
for data indexing and more traditional filesystem for
data storage. Never mind the fact that it's
financially uneconomical.

<p>> It's a crazy idea if you are storing a few gig's,
> raid 5 would do, but
> we could be storing TBytes of audio and video, then
> using raid's or
> san's becomes more of a problem.  That's why we are
> looking into using
> the cluster management of Oracle, but pull the audio
> data out and stream
> using Icecast instead of using intermedia.
> 
> This solution abstracts us from the filesystem, and
> their limits.
