HTTP (with cache)

DSS can directly read data stored on HTTP or HTTPS servers using the HTTP dataset . This “remote” dataset can only be used as input in DSS.

However, this often has bad performance characteristics because DSS needs to redownload the data each time it needs it. To handle this case, DSS provides the Download recipe .

Creating a cached version of a HTTP source with the download recipe implies:

Since this process can be cumbersome, DSS provides a shortcut that automatically performs the previous actions.
