How to restrict number of concurrent uploads

[Thiam Chye]

Hi there,

Since browsers have restrictions on the number of connections per domain/proxy, is there anyway that I could configure the upload widget to limit the maximum number of concurrent upload connections? This would allow other ajax calls to work while my long running asyn upload is running (which may range from 1-20 files).

Thank you!

Hi,

The Upload does not currently provide precise control over the number of concurrent request. You can however use the batch option to bundle all selected files in one request:

$("#file").kendoUpload({
    async: {
        saveUrl: "..."
        batch: true
    }
}

The combined size of all files should be considered when configuring the request size limit of the server.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Got it. It would be great if this option is placed as a new feature request for the next KendoUI update. We did consider using batch uploads, but we would lose the speed gains of concurrent uploads observed in most environments. Thank you.
