I think there may be some confusion on the OP's part because many sources give out *advice* to put a filesystem path,
ratherthan the entire actual binary object, into the database... and that's still good advice, even on RDS! It just
meansthat path needs to be a URI or some other piece of metadata that points to a different server, rather than the RDS
server.
