[mapserver-users] OSS application to serve file based images

[Lucena, Ivan]

IMHO, I believe that you can replicate the functionalities of those two 
commercial software products by writing your own scripts in whatever OSS 
  solution you choose. Lots of work and know-how is required. While in 
Image Server for example, you just run some wizard-like UIs and get the 
job done much easier. But don't take my word for that, I'm one of the 
"experts" that believe that you *can* load and server images from a 
database server.
Best regards,
Ivan
