Description

I am trying to store the images and encodings of the images in a database. I tried with hdfs. But, i think database is good than filesystem as i want to retrive the details more often.

I want to store numpy array of 128 face encodings as it is rather than spliting each value to one cell in a table. Is it possible ? I see mangodb can handle numpy arrays.

But i want to know your suggestions before.

It would be awesome if real time data storage is also supported.

Could you please guide me ?

Thank you

Research direction

The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points and asks for guidance about storing images and 128-value NumPy face encodings. Start by clarifying whether a repository change or documentation update is intended; done would require a specific supported storage approach and documented requirements for retrieval and real-time use.
