Currently I am using WCF and http using the chunk way, but for a specific set of file I need to do it differently.Any tips, help or links will help me alot

Answer 1

When you transfer large files the best way to using “WCF service + HTTP”, we can use the following types of bindings:

wsHttpBinding basicHttpBinding

Answer 2

Where do your clients reside? If the transfer is within the same network, you can take a look at this article. Otherwise, check this information on MSDN.
