Managed File Transfer - Different Flavors

Different Flavors

While Managed File Transfer always recovers the same features -reporting (e.g., notification of successful file transfers), non-repudiation, auditability, global visibility, automation of file transfer-related activities and processes, end-to-end security, and performance metrics/monitoring- the way it is used has a major impact on the nature of the appropriate solution. Today analysts and experts agree on 6 different usage patterns for MFT:

  1. Ad Hoc
  2. Accelerated Transfer or "Extreme" Transfer
  3. A2A (Administrative-2-Administration)
  4. B2B
  5. Cloud
  6. SOA

All are defined by their own markers and require different methods.
