Description

Use cases:
1. Large file upload - With high speed internet connections, advent of cloud and HD going mainstream, Sling should support large files (> 2GB) upload.
2. Fault tolerant uploads - Sling should provide capability to resume upload from failure point. It should not require client to restart the complete upload process.
3. Faster upload: Sling should support its clients to initiate multiple connection and upload file chunks in parallel.
