Review the sample database.

What is the BLOB column storing for this particular database table?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: E

BLOBs are used when the data is not easily defined or not typical, so BLOBs can basically be used to store anything. The embedded JPG file most likely stores the image associated with the contact for this application.

The file header of FF D8 indicates a JPEG image is being stored in this BLOB.

This seems off, why would a BLOB store text?

I’m leaning towards JPEG images because I think they’re commonly stored in BLOB columns, but I’m not completely certain.

I feel like it could be audio files since they often use BLOBs, but I also recall something about images being stored that way too.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I remember that BLOB can hold various types of files, but I’m unsure about this specific example.

I think BLOB columns usually store binary data, but I can't remember if it's specifically for videos or images.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. Updating the host file for the managed server seems like it could work, but it might be a bit of a hassle to maintain. The DNS name option sounds like the cleanest solution to me.

Ah, I remember learning about MPLS tunnels and IGP routing in one of my networking classes. I think I can apply that knowledge here.
