Hello,
Thanks a lot to everyone. I got a little mixed up at first but I think I'm on the right track now, initially I'm going to do it using zip files, If there is time left I think I'm going to try a Multipart Response like the one described here:

The format for what you're talking about is called 'AppleSingle.' Nobody uses it.
There are many ways to serialize multiple files, including zip, cpio, and tar.

Great, I was starting to feel very lost,
OK, lets say I can convince the client team to use the copyfile method, how can I actually put that metadata and the file into one single file that I can stream to the web users? This is on linux.

That's what the AppleDouble file is. On the Mac side, you can use copyfile() to serialize the metadata. See the man page.
