Using MySQL as a filesystem
,----[ Quote ]
| With MySQLfs you can store a filesystem inside a MySQL relational database.
| MySQLfs breaks up the byte content of files that you store in its filesystem
| into tuples in the database, which allows you to store large files in the
| filesystem without requiring the database to support extremely large BLOB
| fields. With MySQLfs you can throw a filesystem into a MySQL database and
| take advantage of whatever database backup, clustering, and replication setup
| you have to protect your MySQLfs filesystem.
