Julian Reschke commented on SLING-2707:
---------------------------------------

[~alexander.klimetschek] That would be "append in place"", for which PUT does 
not work (see 
<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-ietf-httpbis-p2-semantics-21.html#rfc.section.5.3.4.p.10>).
 We *can* do that with PATCH (if we did define an "append" patch format). In 
any case, I would avoid two different protocols unless it's clear that we need 
both.

> Use cases: 
> 1. Large file upload - With high speed internet connections, advent of cloud 
> and HD going mainstream, Sling should support large files (> 2GB) upload.
> 2. Fault tolerant uploads - Sling should provide capability to resume upload 
> from failure point. It should not require client to restart the complete 
> upload process. 
> 3. Faster upload: Sling should support its clients to initiate multiple 
> connection and upload file chunks in parallel.
