About Topic:
FileTables is a SQL Server features that allows easy storage and access to documents dynamically. After some initial setup, users can simply drag files into a folder and then be able to access their meta-data and contents through SQL Server, seamlessly. Due to the way FileTable uses the FileStream feature, it stores files on the file system but maintains the metadata in the database. This allows full control over the file while not bloating the database.
