What is high-speed data transfer?
High-speed data transfer technology enables you to overcome the challenges of legacy file transfer tools and physical shipping methods to move large amounts of data across global distances at maximum speed. IBM’s patented technology offers a redundant, highly scalable architecture that securely and reliably transfers your data up to hundreds of times faster than FTP and HTTP. Organizations use IBM Aspera® to migrate massive amounts of data across a hybrid cloud, deliver streams and growing files anywhere, accelerate global team collaboration, and synchronize data across multiple sites.

Features
Patented transfer technology
IBM Aspera FASP® uses your existing technology to move data up to hundreds of times faster than FTP and HTTP, regardless of file size, transfer distance or network conditions.
Adaptive transmission-rate control
Gain extraordinary bandwidth control from an intelligent transmission-rate control mechanism that automatically discovers and fully uses available bandwidth while being fair to other traffic.
Comprehensive security
Help keep business-critical digital assets safe with open standards cryptography for user authentication, data encryption and data-integrity verification.
Load balancing and built-in high availability
Scale across any bandwidth capacity or number of transfer nodes, cloud server clusters and users. The protocol automatically retries and resumes interrupted or failed transfers.
Web-based collaboration workspace
Package and send files and folders internally or externally. Content drop boxes, mobile device support and an automated desktop downloader help ensure timely collaboration.
Central administration console
Connect to all your cloud and on-premises storage. Configure access to transfer nodes in data centers or on cloud platforms like IBM Cloud™, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure and Google.

Transfer data globally
IBM's next-generation software technologies move the world's data at maximum speed, regardless of file size, transfer distance or network conditions. See how the console shows many active high-speed transfers efficiently running over a client's multi-gigabit network between Europe and the West Coast.
