Which rest service is the best

Question

Which rest service is the best for huge data transfer. I am using asp.net web api.. is it enough or there is better

Answer 1

Without asserting too much, I'm tempted to suggest that REST implementations are customized and details depend on the backend servicing the request (i.e., that's the limiting factor, not the interface to it). For example, AngularJS and nodejs use some form of sockets/websockets to get the job done...and the REST stuff is just writing some code to respond to GET (etc); however it arrives it's still TCP.

For example, google (or, might be gmail) supports XYZZY as a request...for which "Nothing happens."--an old game joke, by example to say: it depends on the developers (at the same time all transfers ought to just be straight-through: open a pipe, write as fast as your bandwidth for as long as the socket's responding). I'll think about this.
