Hur stabila är uploadscript? Klarar dom timeouts? [ASP.NET]

Scriptet kommer ju inte spela någon roll eftersom direkt efter requesten har gjorts så är det upp till klienten(webläsaren), http-protokollet och http-servern att se till att filen kommer fram som den ska.

Känns vettigare att använda ett vettigare protokoll såsom FTP exempelvis.

Det brukar sägas att man bör använda rätt verktyg för rätt jobb. HTTP-uploads via browser är definitivt inte rätt verktyg när du pratar 4 GB filer. Undersök om det inte går att finna andra lösningar. Om du bara måste använda HTTP, undersök om exempelvis WebDAV kan uppfylla dina behov.

Since DAV works over HTTP, you get all the benefits of HTTP that FTP cannot provide. For example: strong authentication, encryption, proxy support, and caching. It is true that you can get some of this through SSH, but the HTTP infrastructure is much more widely deployed than SSH. Further, SSH does not have the wide complement of tools, development libraries, and applications that HTTP does.

DAV transfers (well, HTTP transfers) are also more efficient than FTP. You can pipeline multiple transfers through a single TCP connection, whereas FTP requires a new connection for each file transferred (plus the control connection).

Locking (concurrency control): long-duration exclusive and shared write locks prevent the overwrite problem, where two or more collaborators write to the same resource without first merging changes. To achieve robust Internet-scale collaboration, where network connections may be disconnected arbitrarily, and for scalability, since each open connection consumes server resources, the duration of DAV locks is independent of any individual network connection.

All that remains is to enable remote users. To do so, create an Add Network Place shortcut for users to access in My Network Places on their client machine. Each user then needs to go to My Network Places, double click the Add Network Place shortcut, and enter the URL of the Web-DAV site. The first time a user accesses the shortcut in My Network Places, Windows Explorer will prompt for credentials; afterward, users have access to the file server as though it were a typical shared folder
