[opencms-dev] File System Serving Binary Assets

[Joe C]

Hello,

We are using OpenCms and would like to know if anyone else has experience
hosting binary assets such as video, pdfs, word, etc... external to the VFS?

In particular we would like to store and serve these binary assets on a
local file system or remote media server while maintaining references to
these objects inside OpenCms content type objects. Some of the challenges we
are having include integrating search, using the native OpenCms admin GUI
for file system/media server CRUD operations, and maintaining separate asset
host URLs. Any comments regarding architectural decisions, third party
tool.integration and helpful examples would be welcome.

Thanks
JC
