Desktop access to AoC using IBM Aspera Connect
IBM Aspera Connect allows users to access their Aspera on Cloud content directly from the desktop without using a browser. This capability was formerly provided by Aspera Drive; Aspera Drive is now consolidated into Aspera Connect.
When Connect is connected to IBM Aspera on Cloud you can perform the following tasks from the
Connect Remote View:
- Browse the contents of your Aspera on Cloud workspace.
- In your Aspera on Cloud Files app:
- Upload and download files and folders.
- Synchronize local folders with folders on the remote transfer server. You can sync in three directions: remote to local (pull); local to remote (push), and bi-directionally.
- In your Aspera on Cloud Packages app:
- Send files and folder in a digital package, to another user or to shared inbox.
- Download package that you receive in your personal inbox or in shared inboxes.
- Schedule automated package downloads.
The IBM Aspera Connect user documentation has installation, configuration, usage, and troubleshooting procedures.
