In order to be adapting theiArchive to the needs of the Catalan administrations, on October 29 a new version of the iARXIU platform was launched which includes the following improvements:
- Improvements in the transfer / entry and consultation of large files thanks to the implementation of new methods that allow them to be managed efficiently and avoiding the problems of performance and memory of the platform. However, reasonable limits have been defined that are appropriate to the needs of the users of the services:
- Document migrations up to 100 MB are allowed.
- Signed documents in pdf up to 35 MB are validated (from this size, signatures will be entered but will not be validated)
- Document / file entries are allowed via the web and the web service upload method up to 500 MB.
- Update of Java and .NET clients, as well as the associated documentation, for those users who consume the web services of the platform. Compatibility with previous messaging is maintained in most cases. Basically added:
- Admission web service: the ability to work asynchronously with compressed files in ZIP format. This lightens the weight of the files from the client to the server, optimizing their bandwidth and upload and download time. Specifically, the ability to include ZIP files in the upload entry method has been added.
- Consultation service: A download servlet has been created to download the file that previously traveled within the response itself. This change becomes necessary when you want to work with large or very large files and is achieved by making the response not directly include the file, but a ticket with which to then obtain the file, in a separate operation, using the download servlet.
- This change affects classes GetAuthenticCopyRequestTest, GetBinaryRequestTest, GetZipPackageRequestTest, MigrateBinaryTest and in class GetPackageRequestTest as it is not necessary to specify whether to include the binaries or not as it is not supported.
- Update of the user manuals and tutorial videos of the service that are posted on the AOC Consortium's Youtube Channel: here
- And several minor issues related to staff management and administration have also been fixed.
