Is there a file size limit?
With the Creative Cloud desktop app, you can upload files up to 5 GB. If you attempt to upload anything larger, you may see some unexpected errors.
With the Creative Cloud website, you can upload files up to 1 GB. If you attempt to upload anything larger, you may see some unexpected upload failures.

It is indeed a bit on the small size, not sure that there's any way around it, you could use something like Google Drive or Dropbox but you need to pay to have the extra storage space.
Dropbox has a limit of 50GB

You could compress the file into smaller sizes, that way you could have 7 * 4.3GB files to upload

Compressing/zipping the file wont affect the quality, when the file is extracted from the zip file it will be the same size as the original, so if you zip a 30GB file to say 7 * 4.3GB files and then unzip the files it will still be the original size of 30GB when unzipped
Zipping files is a way of breaking a large file into smaller files, so when you zip a file you will have something like
part1.zip
part2.zip
part3.zip
part4.zip
part5.zip
part6.zip
part7.zip
part1.zip will be the first file that is extracted and then the others will be extracted automatically
I use it all the time and never have issues with the quality of the extracted file
