Best practices asp.net mvc: working with images

Question

what are the best practices to process images in enterptices web applications. I mean

storing
assign with entity
fast loading/caching
delayed / ajax loading
suitable format (png, jpeg)
on fly editing (resizing, compress)
free libs/helpers
image watermarking/copyrighting on fly Especially, appreciated already production approaches!

This question is too open-ended, I suggest you rephrase it and be more specific if you want to get any useful answers from it. — David Glenn, May 04 '11 at 12:14

As always, every project has their own requirements, restrictions and resources (The 3Rs). There is no 'super pattern' or 'one size fits all' method.

We cannot tell you how to implement you project as every project is different. It's up to you to use your skills/knowledge and experience to make informed decisions on implementation.

The 'best practice' is to individually research and learn each of the technologies/methods you have listed and gain the knowledge to know when to use them based on your projects requirements, restrictions and resources.

OK, I mean technology best practices. It's clear that when we have 3R.But I develop my own project and actually don't know how it will be scaled in future. Any, technology have best general approach and I interesed in tehcnology approach in particular. – Alexandr May 05 '11 at 08:59
Nothing in development is permanent, I would worry about scaling when you're lucky enough to have that problem. There can be recommended design patterns but they're not a 'magic bullet' for every project. You need to understand the patterns or best practices in order to know when to use them and when not to use them. This question is to broad to get any decent answer from it. – David Glenn May 05 '11 at 09:14

I use ImageMagickObject in my mvc projects. It can:

suitable format (png, jpeg)
on flyediting (resizing, compress)
freelibs/helpers image
watermarking/copyrighting on fly

fast loading/caching: may be memcached?
delayed / ajax loading: jquery is a good solution
assign with entity: Entity Framework can work with almost all databases
storing: hard question. all depend to the functionality
