Are additional fields, particularly images, supported?

Just wondering if the schema has additional flexibility, and if uploading an image to the databunker is supported

Hello Elliot

Thank you for your question. In general, it is not recommended to save binary files in any database. Databases are not built for file storage. Same for Databunker.

For secure file storage, you can do the following:

  1. Encrypt a file with a random key
  2. Use Databunker to store this random key
  3. Save the encrypted file on the disk or AWS s3 or GCP bucket or another service

If possible, I would love to talk with you to study how you use Databunker. I want to publish case studies for the product. Ping me if you are available: [email protected] https://calendly.com/stremovsky/30min

Thanks, Yuli
