You are kidding me right, A filesystem is basically a database full
of file nodes.

If you are dealing in a one OS, one machine fine, standard file access
is great. If you are dealing with heterogenous networks, where NFS
is not available, then a Databased filesystem may in fact be the only
way to go.

See oracle internet filesystem.

Plus the fact, where is your data and performance stats, as you very
well know to say an approach in the computer industry is completely
idiotic, is idiotic.
