Storing PDF,Word and Excel in database

Badam123Jun 13 2017 — edited Jun 14 2017

Hi

From the Front-end application ( Java ) we have an Browse button , where we can upload PDF,Word and Excel documents . The application is accessible to nearly 40 users and they can upload the documents from their machines .

(I studied that in oracle we have an option to store the documents .in the table itself using BLOB and BFILE )

Below are my questions

1)Which is the best option in oracle.

2)From the performance and security perspective, Is it good option to store the files in the database ?

3)If stored in database can we access ( view content ) the files from the database directly ( My requirement is to only display the content from front-end either through Save orĀ  download options )

Please provide any reference links if possible .

Thanks in advance
