Getting the response as a stream from the HTTP functions in QSYS2

The HTTP functions wait until the entire response has been received before returning it. 
Returning the response as a stream, without waiting for it to be complete, it would result in better performance particularly with very large responses.

    IBM does not intend to provide a solution to this Idea at this time, so it is being closed.

    While this is an interesting concept, these functions are not built using architectures that can return and process results in blocks. If there was a way to get bursts of data back, processing such as JSON_TABLE within SQL requires a complete object before it can begin shredding it.
