Big files

pvpkumar

Our application require uploading big multi media files of size around 500-600 MB into TeamSite through DCT. The performance is bad with such big file. Is that a common ? Is there any upper limit for file size to upload into TS.

We use TS 5.5.2 on AIX

500-600 MB is not appropriate for browser-based applications with today's internet or even most intranet speeds. If you're trying to use a BROWSE widget for the upload you're surely going to fail. By fail I mean that the browser will time out before the file is complete.

If you want to use TeamSite for the upload ( as opposed to FTP ), then try Launchpad ( File > Import Files ) command. It's java-based so it'll get around the timeout issue, but I don't know how well it works with really big files.

Once you have imported the files into the system, you can write a simple browse callout in your DCT to insert the path inside a Form/DCR.

You really should implement something else (i.e. Samba or some nice FTP client) for this purpose. 1/2 GB is too huge for a web application to handle.

Another possible angle here might be to use TeamSite Front Office. It comes with TeamSite so you don't have any other licensing restrictions. You just have to install the server/client software and configure the workarea you are trying to import things into as available.

It will still take a while to transfer the files, but you will have direct access to your workarea via the TeamSite briefcase. I believe the files are transmitted as SOAP attachments.

Are these files local on the person's desktop or on a shared drive?

I had a customer who needed to do something similar and it turned out they were on a shared drive. We then had them put the location in the DCT, and used OpenDeploy to pull the files into the workarea. If these are on the desktops it would not make sense since you'd need a reciever on each one, but if it's on a shared system it may be worth looking into.

I would only use TFO if absolutely necessary. Primarily because it requires a fat-client install on each user's computer. This is big headache for IT people.

I would recommend (1) launchpad (2) ftp (3) mount

I implemeneted something like this before, templates were used to spawn a java process to upload the file
& place it into the appropriate directory.

Pretty easy now with the new changes in FormAPI.

pvpkumer said he/she is using TS 5.5.2, though. I seem to remember this version was pretty bad with regard to importing files of a NORMAL size...
