Hi Ken,
Thanks for the reply. i understood your point. what i have tried. > byte[] srcBytes = File.ReadAllBytes(filePath); > get the chunk of 1 MB out of srcBytes > when i pass this 1 MB chunk to Tika it is giving me the error. > As the WIKI Tika needs the entire file to extract content. this is where i struck. i don't wan't to pass entire file to Tika. correct me if i am wrong. --Raghu. ________________________________ From: Ken Krugler <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2016 9:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Unable to extract content from chunked portion of large file Hi Raghu, I don't think you understood what I was proposing. I suggested creating a service that could receive chunks of the file (persisted to local disk). Then this service could implement an input stream class that would read sequentially from these pieces. This input stream would be passed to Tika, thus giving Tika a single continuous stream of data to the entire file content. -- Ken ________________________________ From: raghu vittal Sent: February 24, 2016 4:32:01am PST To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Unable to extract content from chunked portion of large file Thanks for your reply. In our application user can upload large files. Our intention is to extract the content out of large file and dump that in Elastic for contented based search. we have > 300 MB size .xlsx and .doc files. sending that large file to Tika will causing timeout issues. i tried getting chunk of file and pass to Tika. Tika given me invalid data exception. I Think for Tika we need to pass entire file at once to extract content.

We are using Tika to extract content and dump data in Elastic Search for full-text search. sending very large files to Tika will cause out of memory exception. we want to chunk the file and send it to TIKA for content extraction. when we passed chunked portion of file to Tika it is giving empty text. I assume Tika is relied on file structure that why it is not giving any content. we are using Tika Server(REST api) in our .net application. please suggest us better approach for this scenario.
