Uploading Large Files Through Web Service. Introduction In this article, I am going to explain how to upload large files using web service method. We will not need to change anything in IIS or web.config (maximum request size) developed in Visual Studio 2008. Using the Code I have created a web method to accept file name, bytes (array) and offset. Here is the function. [WebMethod] public bool UploadFile(string FileName, byte[] buffer, long Offset) { bool retVal = false; try { string FilePath = Path.Combine(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["upload_path"], FileName); if (Offset == 0) File.Create(FilePath).Close(); using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(FilePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.Read)) { fs.Seek(Offset, SeekOrigin.Begin); fs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length); } retVal = true; } catch (Exception ex) { common.SendError(ex); } return retVal; } In the function, I am setting the file location to be saved in the server.

Books About High Performance Web Pages. Continuous Integration. I vividly remember one of my first sightings of a large software project. I was taking a summer internship at a large English electronics company. My manager, part of the QA group, gave me a tour of a site and we entered a huge depressing warehouse stacked full with cubes. I was told that this project had been in development for a couple of years and was currently integrating, and had been integrating for several months. My guide told me that nobody really knew how long it would take to finish integrating. From this I learned a common story of software projects: integration is a long and unpredictable process. But this needn't be the way. This contrast isn't the result of an expensive and complex tool.
When I've described this practice to people, I commonly find two reactions: "it can't work (here)" and "doing it won't make much difference".

No one cares about the site for most of the year, and then all of a sudden – wham! – things start getting warm in the data centre. Whilst the thought of chestnuts roasting on an open server has a certain appeal, it’s less attractive if you care about your site being available to visitors. Take a look at this Alexa traffic graph showing traffic patterns for superbowl.com at the beginning of each year, and wimbledon.org in the month of July.
