In the advance learning path “Advanced Domain Model Skills” There is some information about File server location in 3.1 as follows: “In a standard configuration, the file content is not stored in the content attribute, but on the file system of the app server.” What is the meaning of “standard configuration” mentioned above? And in which cases does a file content get stored in the ‘content’ attribute of the entity?

Hey Khaled,

Standard configuration refers to the normal storage of file systems, i.e. when you store file in your entities, in your local database,

But, when you are trying to send the file objects through REST call or any other means, at that time, contents of the file are stored in attributes, so that they can be sent to other systems,

Hope it was helpful!
