We have a requirement to store appoximately 3,000,000 12K JPEG images for online retrieval over a wide area network. I am wondering if anyone has experience using Oracle for image storage and retrieval. Apart from the obvious network bandwidth considerations a number of people I have talked with feel it's a bad idea but are fuzzy about the reasons why.

I would greatly appreciate any experience or insights.
