• High-availability cluster configuration options (active/active or active/ passive) and reliable deliveries with automatic retry and resume of partial or failed transfers.
• Simultaneous multi-location file delivery using multi-point transfers.
• Automatic, fast and lossless inline compression reduces data set transfer sizes, providing further boost to Aspera’s industry leading transfer performance.
• Maximum control, even resource usage, and faster transfer times with configurable options for controlling the intra-file ‘splitting’ over the parallel sessions.

Cloud Ready

• Can be deployed in cloud infrastructure, taking advantage of unlimited storage and transfer scale-out and with optimized cloud I/O for maximum transfer speeds.
