I found the images advice unnecessarily black and white. Of course there are cases where storing images or documents is the right move. few reasons i can think of: 1. you can leverage the same auth scheme as the rest of your data 2. audit trail 3. transactional support for image CRUD operations 4. leveraging replication features already offered by your DB 5. blobs can be searchable if the database supports full text search, super useful to search document contents.
