send a file through Http server

Question

Hello everyone,

I am writing a console application which is using http(s) to send a couple of binary files to IIS server (an ASP.Net application). I am wondering in order to improve upload performance and reliability, which C# APIs should I use to upload files and any special points I need to consider in my scenario?

thanks in advance,
George

Answer 3

WebClient is the better as it allows you with a simple way  to leverage the task of uploading asynchronously as it has a special method to do that directly so it will be better for the application performance
