Upload Large Files To SharinPix

Overview

In this article, we will demonstrate how to use a multipart image upload on a SharinPix Album or SharinPix Single Image. To do so, we will:

SharinPix uses a feature called Multipart Upload for large file transfers, breaking a big file into smaller parts, uploading them in parallel for speed, and reassembling them on Amazon S3. 

The key benefits include:

  • Improved Throughput/Speed when uploading large files
  • Enhanced Reliability and Fault Tolerance
  • Efficient Memory Usage

Note: 

  • If you do not frequently upload files larger than 100 MB, do not activate this, as it will affect performance
  • Before using this feature, ensure you have the latest SharinPix package installed. How to upgrade SharinPix package

Creation of SharinPix Permission

  • In SharinPix Permissions, create a new record or edit an existing permission.
  • Open the Upload section and check Multipart Upload.

Assign the SharinPix Permission to the Album component

  • On a SharinPix Album, add the ID or Name of the SharinPix Permission record, which includes the maximum file size.
  • In this example, the custom permission was named Upload Multipart. It has been set in the Custom Permissions Id or Name parameter of a SharinPix Album component. 

Tip:

The above will also work for a SharinPix Single Image. The custom permission created should then be defined as a Single Image Permission.
