Oracle interMedia is a feature of the Oracle Database. interMedia:

  • Is a general purpose feature that enables the management & retrieval of image, audio, and video data.
  • Has knowledge of the most popular multimedia formats and can automate metadata extraction and basic image processing.
  • Facilitates development of multimedia applications using JSPs, Servlets, PL/SQL or when using tools such as JDeveloper (ADF/UIX) and Oracle Portal.

interMedia manages multimedia data within an Oracle Database under transaction control (See Transaction processing). Alternately, an Oracle Database can use interMedia to store and index meta-information together with external references that enable efficient access to media content stored outside the database.
