Would it make sense to use iFS to store and serve images that are uploaded (via browser) and then displayed on a website?

When storing the imgages directly on the dick we run into scalability issues [Quoted] as well as having to worry about propagating copies of each image to each web
server.

Does it make more sense to store the images in iFS or simply in a BLOB (or whatever) in a normal Oracle table?

Is anyone using iFS for this?
