+In the case of Issues/MR/Notes Markdown attachments, there is a different approach using the [Hashed Storage] layout,
instead of basing the path into a mutable variable `:project_path_with_namespace`, it's possible to use the
hash of the project ID instead, if project migrates to the new approach (introduced in 10.2).
+### Path segments
+
+Files are stored at multiple locations and use different path schemes.
+All the `GitlabUploader` derived classes should comply with this path segment schema:
+
+```
+| GitlabUploader
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + --------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `<gitlab_root>/public/` | `uploads/-/system/` | `user/avatar/:id/` | `:filename` |
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + --------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `CarrierWave.root` | `GitlabUploader.base_dir` | `GitlabUploader#dynamic_segment` | `CarrierWave::Uploader#filename` |
+| | `CarrierWave::Uploader#store_dir` | |
+
+| FileUploader
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + --------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `<gitlab_root>/shared/` | `artifacts/` | `:year_:month/:id` | `:filename` |
+| `<gitlab_root>/shared/` | `snippets/` | `:secret/` | `:filename` |
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + --------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `CarrierWave.root` | `GitlabUploader.base_dir` | `GitlabUploader#dynamic_segment` | `CarrierWave::Uploader#filename` |
+| | `CarrierWave::Uploader#store_dir` | |
+| | | `FileUploader#upload_path |
+
+| ObjectStore::Concern (store = remote)
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + ----------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `<bucket_name>` | <ignored> | `user/avatar/:id/` | `:filename` |
+| ----------------------- + ------------------------- + ----------------------------------- + -------------------------------- |
+| `#fog_dir` | `GitlabUploader.base_dir` | `GitlabUploader#dynamic_segment` | `CarrierWave::Uploader#filename` |
+| | | `ObjectStorage::Concern#store_dir` | |
+| | | `ObjectStorage::Concern#upload_path |
+```
+
+The `RecordsUploads::Concern` concern will create an `Upload` entry for every file stored by a `GitlabUploader` persisting the dynamic parts of the path using
+`GitlabUploader#dynamic_path`. You may then use the `Upload#build_uploader` method to manipulate the file.
+
+## Object Storage
+
+By including the `ObjectStorage::Concern` in the `GitlabUploader` derived class, you may enable the object storage for this uploader. To enable the object storage
+in your uploader, you need to either 1) include `RecordsUpload::Concern` and prepend `ObjectStorage::Extension::RecordsUploads` or 2) mount the uploader and create a new field named `<mount>_store`.
+
+The `CarrierWave::Uploader#store_dir` is overriden to
+
+ - `GitlabUploader.base_dir` + `GitlabUploader.dynamic_segment` when the store is LOCAL
+ - `GitlabUploader.dynamic_segment` when the store is REMOTE (the bucket name is used to namespace)
+
+### Using `ObjectStorage::Extension::RecordsUploads`
+
+> Note: this concern will automatically include `RecordsUploads::Concern` if not already included.
+
+The `ObjectStorage::Concern` uploader will search for the matching `Upload` to select the correct object store. The `Upload` is mapped using `#store_dirs + identifier` for each store (LOCAL/REMOTE).
+
+```ruby
+class SongUploader < GitlabUploader
+ include RecordsUploads::Concern
+ include ObjectStorage::Concern
+ prepend ObjectStorage::Extension::RecordsUploads
+
+ ...
+end
+
+class Thing < ActiveRecord::Base
+ mount :theme, SongUploader # we have a great theme song!
+
+ ...
+end
+```
+
+### Using a mounted uploader
+
+The `ObjectStorage::Concern` will query the `model.<mount>_store` attribute to select the correct object store.
+This column must be present in the model schema.
+
+```ruby
+class SongUploader < GitlabUploader
+ include ObjectStorage::Concern
+
+ ...
+end
+
+class Thing < ActiveRecord::Base
+ attr_reader :theme_store # this is an ActiveRecord attribute
+ mount :theme, SongUploader # we have a great theme song!
+
+ def theme_store
+ super || ObjectStorage::Store::LOCAL
+ end
+
+ ...
+end
+```

+# Query Count Limits
+
+Each controller or API endpoint is allowed to execute up to 100 SQL queries. In
+a production environment we'll only log an error in case this threshold is
+exceeded, but in a test environment we'll raise an error instead.
+
+## Solving Failing Tests
+
+When a test fails because it executes more than 100 SQL queries there are two
+solutions to this problem:
+
+1. Reduce the number of SQL queries that are executed.
+2. Whitelist the controller or API endpoint.
+
+You should only resort to whitelisting when an existing controller or endpoint
+is to blame as in this case reducing the number of SQL queries can take a lot of
+effort. Newly added controllers and endpoints are not allowed to execute more
+than 100 SQL queries and no exceptions will be made for this rule. _If_ a large
+number of SQL queries is necessary to perform certain work it's best to have
+this work performed by Sidekiq instead of doing this directly in a web request.
+
+## Whitelisting
+
+In the event that you _have_ to whitelist a controller you'll first need to
+create an issue. This issue should (preferably in the title) mention the
+controller or endpoint and include the appropriate labels (`database`,
+`performance`, and at least a team specific label such as `Discussion`).
+
+Once the issue has been created you can whitelist the code in question. For
+Rails controllers it's best to create a `before_action` hook that runs as early
+as possible. The called method in turn should call
+`Gitlab::QueryLimiting.whitelist('issue URL here')`. For example:
+
+```ruby
+class MyController < ApplicationController
+ before_action :whitelist_query_limiting, only: [:show]
+
+ def index
+ # ...
+ end
+
+ def show
+ # ...
+ end
+
+ def whitelist_query_limiting
+ Gitlab::QueryLimiting.whitelist('https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/...')
+ end
+end
+```
+
+By using a `before_action` you don't have to modify the controller method in
+question, reducing the likelihood of merge conflicts.
+
+For Grape API endpoints there unfortunately is not a reliable way of running a
+hook before a specific endpoint. This means that you have to add the whitelist
+call directly into the endpoint like so:
+
+```ruby
+get '/projects/:id/foo' do
+ Gitlab::QueryLimiting.whitelist('...')
+
+ # ...
+end
+```
