I have to transfer 10 GB data to the sharepoint. but before moving to sharepoint I have to connect to the cloud server where I have saved those 10 gb data files...
So my transfer will be using PUTTY , from cloud server to sharepoint.
Is it possible to connect to the cloud server and sharepoint at the same point using PUTTY
Although you can connect to a onpremise sharepoint server via putty, you won't be able to upload files to a document library. The only ways are Http, WebDav, or using some Kind of api (webservices, rest services) with the object model. You also have to take care of the Maximum upload size of sharepoint. You didn't specify if you are using Sharepoint Online or Sharepoint OnPremise nor the Version you want to use.
As Peter indicated you cannot directly transfer the data from the cloud server into SharePoint. You will have to "download" the data using putty and then upload the content using http(s), WebDAV or an API.
10 GB is not a lot of data. You may encounter problems with:
- long URLs (exceeding 260 characters)
- illegal characters (e.g. #)
- blocked files (e.g. dll files are blocked on on-premise)
- maximum file sizes
NB: The uploaded documents will end up with a new modification date.
The easiest way to transfer the files from your local machine into SharePoint is to use explorer view (and break the 10 GB set into smaller chunks). Alternatively use a 3rd party tool (see e.g. https://collab365.directory/office365-sharepoint/best-sharepoint-migration-tools/ or use a SharePoint Add-in) to upload the content. Please note that some tools offer trial versions but they do not upload 100 % of the content.

I need to upload a document of size maximum upto 15gb in Sharepoint document library. Tried multiple approaches such as creating ASP.net web Application and hosting in IIS and saving the file as chunks but since IIS restricts file size to 2 gb , it is not working.
Kindly help me with any references or code snippets usng JSOM/CSOM/Server side coding will be appreaciated.
I assume you are using SharePoint onpremise.
SharePoint 2013 filesize limits is 2GB - docs
SharePoint 2016 default filesize is 2GB and can be increased to 10GB - docs
SharePoint 2019 filesize limits is 15GB (same as SPO) - docs
So you may be limited by SharePoint itself rather than IIS.
However if your SharePoint configuration and version does allow files more than 2GB then you may need to configure the IIS upload limit. Details of how to do this can be found in this blog
I've just uploaded several hundreds of files to my Sharepoint Online libraries. I was wondering what would be the best solution to have them syncronized or kind of a network drive in my WS2008.
Microsoft recommends using the OneDrive Sync client, so here is the Link to the install instructions from MS as a standalone package. Choose the 32-bit version even if your OS is 64-bit. In my experience with Office rollouts it is still (!) the version giving the least amount of headaches.
Using the OD4B client the files you choose will synchronize to the server. Please note that it is a two-way-sync and if you delete something on the server this will be done in SharePoint as well.
Map to network drive (i.e. via WebDAV) is still possible in SharePoint Online, but it is not reliable and disconnects often due to authentication requirements.
I have the URL of a SharePoint (2013) document and also the path to a network document.
(Both the SharePoint document and the network document can be very large. In this specific case, the SharePoint document is an image-only PDF and the network document is a text-searchable version of the same document.)
I want to update the content of the SharePoint document with the content of the network document.
What is the best way to do this in .NET?
(I'm trying to avoid adding a new document to SharePoint, because of document ID considerations.)
Thanks!
There are several issues you have to tackle. 1) SharePoint must be configured to accept large files, 2) IIS must be configured to handle large requests, and 3) IIS must be configured to wait long enough for the upload to complete.
To configure SharePoint to accept large files, change the Maximum Upload Size for the web application in Central Admin.
To configure web limits in IIS, check out the Microsoft documentation at iis.net. (www.iis.net/configreference/system.applicationhost/weblimits).
We have an Office 365 site. When we upload documents of few MB from Browser, they are successfully uploaded to document library but when we tried to upload file of size greater than 50MB, we get the connection closed/interrupted error
in IE, we get:
in Chrome, we get
As far as I know, Office 365 support maximum of 250MB file size.
Please let us know, if there is any settings/configuration we need to set either in client or server side.
Thanks in Advance!
Yes for SharePoint online the limit is a single file of 250MB.
Suggestions:
Try mapping a drive and dragging and dropping
Try using a client tool like SharePoint Workspace
Check your outbound firewall timeouts. Maybe try another location?
Thanks

We have a requirement to store documents in SharePoint Online as people copy files to a shared network directly.
Is there a way of automating this? I was thinking of a windows service which will poll the directories, find any changes like new subdirectories or new files, then upload them to a SharePoint Online document library.
You don't have to poll if you use a FileSystemWatcher inside your Windows service for real-time notifications.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.filesystemwatcher.aspx
However, if your requirement is 100% accuracy, you will need to build in some sort of tracking/checksum mechanism to make sure that every document was 1) detected and 2) successfully moved to SharePoint.
You may want to have your service check the delta every time it starts up, and then subsequently only respond to FileSystemWatcher events.
EDIT: Per Tony's question below, here are some additional thoughts on getting files to SharePoint.
First, try a simple test.
1) Copy the URL of a document library within the BPOS SharePoint site. Make sure you're on a machine that has the Office Online sign in app on it.
2) Open Notepad. Type some random text.
3) Click on File -> Save As.
4) Paste the URL.
5) Attempt to save the file.
This works great on "regular" SharePoint (done it many times). If this works with BPOS, it opens up several options.
File System Replication to a SharePoint Online or Office 365 document library is planned to be released with the "Cloud Connector for Office 365". With the current version database content is supported only, but bi-directional with V2.0
