Configure the RBS (Remote blob storage) feature for Sharepoint

Content summary

By default, all content of Sharepoint is stored in the database. (This database is called a content database ). If we want to store a large volume of content, it may lead to a sharp increase in the content database, and the management will be more complicated. At the same time, putting these large contents in the database will also increase the pressure on the database to access data and transmit data over the network.

In SharePoint 2007, a so-called EBS extension interface is provided, and the storage provider can implement a fixed interface to make some extensions with Sharepoint. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/bb802976 (V = office.12). aspx

In SharePoint 2007, Microsoft did not provide the official EBS implementation, so in fact, EBS is basically a theoretical possibility. In SharePoint 2010, this feature is actually released and is now named RBS (Remote blob storage). Microsoft also provides a default implementation: it is implemented based on the filestream function of SQL Server 2008.

In this section, I will discuss how to configure and use the SharePoint RBS feature.
