Multipart Upload Resumption in a Weak Network Environment

Last updated: 2024-03-25 15:11:17

    Background

    This document describes how to dynamically adjust the part size during a multipart upload to COS to improve the upload success rate on poor network connections on mobile devices.
    Note:
    This feature is currently during beta test. To enable it, submit a ticket for application.

    Notes

    1. Currently, the minimum part size supported by COS is 100 KB.
    2. The smaller the part, the more the requests. Tests show that the time consumed by requests with a part size of 100 KB is about twice that when the part size is 1 MB.
    3. If a request is initiated on a normal network connection, it is recommended to set the part size to 1 MB or higher.
    4. Uploading an object in environments with weak signals may fail. If this is the case, you can consider setting the part size to 100 KB and retry the upload.
    5. The smaller the part, the slower the file download in the future.
