Uploading Very Large Files

Hi All,

I want to upload very large files in GB through ruby on rails + Ajax platform. I am not able to find any concrete solution for this. Please help me so that i can get this done.

I’d recommand using SWFUpload for initiating the upload + Backgroundrb to handle the upload (so your mongrel is released while backgroundrb’s workers keep track of the upload itself).

However, uploading such large files through HTTP is something I’d avoid, there’s no way to resume the upload if it fails.

Best regards
