System, apparatus, and method are provided for accessing data from a database as a file. Data is organized more securely in database than a file system, but many programs are designed to work with data that is read from a file in a file system. The present invention allows data to be operated upon by external file-based programs that are designed to work on files in a file system while still being able to organize and store data in a database, rather a file folder hierarchy. This invention provides for correlating a file name with data in the database and satisfying forwarded File I/O requests on the data. |
