    Question BFILE on MS SQL Server

    Hello!

    Maybe you know the Type BFILE from Oracle Databases.
    BFILE (External Binary File) is a binary file stored outside of the database in the host operating system file system, but accessible from database tables.

    What is the BFILE equivalent on a Microsoft SQL Server? I could not find one in the MSDN or Documentation - so maybe there is none?

    There is nothing like that in SQL Server. You have to store the binary in image data type column, which is BLOB in Oracle.
