Hello @Allan1,
Yes, the attached link has valuable information regarding streaming synchronization in detail. There is a detailed discussion on how to send files (different sizes) between client and server.
Similarly, in the course, there is a discussion on how to design a Dropbox (a file hosting service), how can a user access cloud storage and save the data on remote servers.
So both discussions are worth it in terms of dropbox understanding from scratch.
