mongodb - 任何人都可以解释 MongoDB GridFS 功能吗？

Question

我是 MongoDB 用户之一。不幸的是，我听说过 MongoDB GridFS 功能，但我不确定何时何地使用该功能或​​必须使用该功能。如果您可能正在使用该功能，我希望你们能准确解释一下此功能。

谢谢，

You'd look into using GridFS if you needed to store large files in MongoDB.

Quote from the MongoDB documentation which I think sums it up well:

The database supports native storage of binary data within BSON objects. However, BSON objects in MongoDB are limited to 4MB in size. The GridFS spec provides a mechanism for transparently dividing a large file among multiple documents. This allows us to efficiently store large objects, and in the case of especially large files, such as videos, permits range operations (e.g., fetching only the first N bytes of a file).

There's also the GridFS specification here
