Nov 2014 webinar Making The Transition From Ftp
- 2. Why should I watch this webinar?
• Current FTP / FTPS / SFTP end users and server admins
• Transferring files larger then 500MB
• Receiving or sending files to overseas or international locations
• Available Bandwidth is greater then 10Mbps
• File delivery contracts or SLA’s require a guaranteed and timely delivery of files
• Transferring multiple versions of the same file (File Deltas)
• Moving data to a disaster recover site
• Working with growing files. The file to be transferred is locked and increasing in size.

• Provide Enterprise Grade Software solutions for moving large data around the world
• Patent pending accelerated file transfers via our unique UDP based approach
• Simplify complicated large file transfers for the enterprise end user.
• Provide all the tools for fast integration into existing enterprise infrastructure
• Provide all the management, security and monitoring tools required to move large data
across corporate networks
• Provide integration solutions with all major cloud vendors, including, Amazon, OpenStack
and Windows Azure

- 5. TCP Overview
• Designed in the 70’s
• Provides reliability, error checking, ordered packets in a
stream
• Congestion control built in
• Internet could not survive without it
• Works well for most internet traffic, email, web browsing
small ad-hoc transfers (HTTP, FTP, SFTP, SMTP etc)

- 6. File Transfer Issues with TCP
• Flow control limits transmission window, causes dead air with
high latency
• Very aggressive in response to network congestion, cannot
tune in application layer
• Result is less than ideal performance on wireless, satellite, or
long haul links
• Can be tuned but still not ideal for many-one, one-many
Data Packet

TCP is a very serial process.
Each packet of data must be received before a
new packet is sent = Decreased transfer speed

- 7. More Efficient Transport Protocol
FileCatalyst transfers files at full link speed:
• UDP with proprietary retransmission and congestion control
• Patent pending algorithm built from the ground up in-house
• Transfer rates up to 10 Gbps (with encryption) using commodity hardware
• Not affected by latency and speed degrades, linearly with packet loss
• Ability to fully leverage multi-core CPU architecture

- 8. Acceleration with FileCatalyst
• Ideal for bulk file transfer
• Predictable - Can send at a perfect rate
• Not affected by latency or packet loss
• Congestion Control implemented in application layer
• Tunable congestion control aggression
• Instantly detect link capacity

FileCatalyst completely saturates the pipe by
sending multiple blocks of data = Increased
transfer speed
- 11. Features to help with transition
Migration tools from FTP
• FileCatalyst also doubles as FTP, FTPS and SFTP server
• LDAP, Active Directory Integration
• Virtual Folders
• FileCatalyst Express client app feels and looks like an FTP client
• Scripting via command line client

- 13. UDP File Transfer Considerations
• Plays fair with other traffic on network
• 10 Gbps file transfer, single stream. Found by
independent study to be only solution to maintain 10 Gbps
with high latency and packet loss.
• High performance for many small files
• Security, reliability, automatic resume
• Automation tools, SDK, web integration, central management
