-------------------------------------------------------------

For info only, in case it was missed earlier.

The AWS Multipart incremental upload referenced earlier started life as a 
request for Content-Range on PUT requests [1]. Also referenced in that thread 
is the Microsoft Azure use of Range headers in PUT as a solution (probably a 
spec extension/violation ?). Interesting to note that the reasoning from AWS 
for using multipart chunks is the difficulty with reassembling the parts in a 
cloud environment where parts of a S3 bucket could arrive concurrently from 
distributed hosts.
If this has already been looked at and considered, then sorry for the noise.

> Support of chunked file upload into Sling

>                 Key: SLING-2707
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2707
>             Project: Sling
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: General
>            Reporter: Shashank Gupta
>         Attachments: uploadclient.jar
>
>
> 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.
