Improve Attachment Process

The NC FAST application uses the OOTB Curam Attachment functionality which transmit files via CMIS protocol to FileNet. The method of delivery in this transaction is not using a stream/buffer to submit the file. As a result memory from our application servers are allocated to this process for attachment uploads and downloads. We have seen servers crash due to out of memory errors. The results of our root case analysis leads us to belive this heap of memory usage by the attachment process is overwhelming the app server when a file is “large”. We have files in our system that exceed 500MB. We have update our max limit of files that can be uploaded to 100MB to help avoid OOM errors, however this is not the permanent solution because of future business requirements surrounding child welfare activities.

We are now requesting an RFE to investigate the overall attachment process in Curam so that the memory heap from the app servers is not unduly burdened. The streaming/buffering of files is one option we would like explored to see if it improves the problems we are currently facing. Any architectural solution that can be provided to eliminate OOM errors due to large files being consumed, would be welcomed.
