The Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) Compact Server is a stand-alone HTTP or HTTPS file server that allows the asynchronous transfer between computers of a limited number of large files.

BITS Compact Server is designed for use by enterprise and small business customers under these conditions:

  • The anticipated usage is a maximum of 25 concurrent connections, and a maximum of 100 total connections per server.

  • File transfers occur between computers in the same domain or mutually-trusted domains.

  • The file transfer functionality is not intended for use on Internet-facing clients.

If your file transfer volume is higher or you want to have additional administrative control and file transfer functionality, install the Servidor BITS.

Configurable Options

BITS Compact Server uses the HTTP Server API to create URLs, receive HTTP requests, and send HTTP responses. The API consists of two interfaces ICompactServer and ICompactServerUrlGroup. The first interface is used to create URL groups and the second interface is used to add URLs to the URL group and to configure some properties. You also use the API to enable authentication, bandwidth limit, and connection limits on the URL groups. There is no user interface.
