I recently had a project that required a custom subset of data from a database be stored in an XML file. Each “row” of data also had a related image on a separate server. The project required that both the data and the image be transferred to a client for subsequent consumption by another program. In designing the project, it seemed unnecessarily complex to transport the data and the images as separate entities. Mostly the problem was that this process would simply add more moving parts, which would add to the complexity and increase the probability of “user inspired difficulties.”
