ASPERA - A NEW APPROACH
TO HIGH SPEED DATA TRANSFER

IBM Aspera software enables organizations to move huge datasets at maximum speeds anywhere in the world, regardless of file size.

Don't forget on the ALT TEXT

What does file or data available at the speed of the mission or project mean to you?

Image

Fast

100x+ faster than FTP anywhere in the world

Image

Secure

Data encryption, verification, user authentication, and reporting to protect data and help meet HIPAA requirements

Image

Flexible

Support for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid storage

Image

Reliable

Guaranteed delivery, no matter how large the file is

 
 

Legacy file sharing problems

95% say their file collaboration don't meet their needs

58% say file sharing and sync tools are too slow or simply fail with big files

53% report security as a roadblock to effective file sharing

Image

Hard Drive Shipments

  • Increased risk of data loss & theft
  • Time-consuming & labor-intensive
  • Expensive to rush deliver
Image

FTP File Transfer

  • Very slow over distance
  • Unreliable for big files
  • Creates network congestion
  • No security out of the box
Image

Cloud File Sharing

  • Consumer grade security 
  • Slow upload/download for big files
  • Limited or no support for private cloud or on-premises

Performance at any distance

Image
Transfer over challenging networks

Move any data (imagery, surveillance video, sensor data, feeds, streams...) over multi-hop satellite networks, RF, and tactical radio networks in predictable time frame, even with extreme latency & packet loss.

Image
Secure
Collaboration

Replace FTP, email-drive, or physical file transfers using secure uploads & file exchanges with many sites and agencies located around the globe

Image
Worldwide aggregation or distribution

Ingest and/or distribute any data (maps, software updates, intelligence artifacts...) to/from central command and analysis centers to worldwide mission locations

Image
DR, migration, backup & archiving

Ingest or migrate any data with technologies that support fast retrieval. Support reliable HA and DR scenarios. Reduce cost, time, and effort as compared with manual data movement.

Key Aspera capabilities

Automatic resume and restart from the point of interruption rather than starting over
Extraordinary bandwith control through the intelligent, adaptive transmission rate control mechanism
Comprehensive, built-in security with end-to-end security model: authentication, encryption in-transit (by default) and at-rest (by option) using strong cryptography, and data integrity verification
Ability to run in any infrastructure (on-premises, cloud, hybrid), cloud platform (IBM, AWS, Azure, Google) and operating system, regardless of paradigm (server, client, web browser, mobile)
Performance at any distance
Big data transport and sync
Large file send & share
Transfer automation and management
Any bit rate streaming
Trusted asset exchange

Key encryption and data transfer requirements

Explosive data growth

Government missions had big data requirements earlier than most; now even larger

Global data generation

Data required for analysis or decision making often originates at remote locations

Distributed data consumption

The worldwide need for data including map data, system updates, intelligence, and files to support remote work or global workflow; agile processes increase transfer needs 

Image
Image
Image

Fast, secure delivery

Traditional file transport is slow over WAN links if possible at all; shipping hard disks is slwo and risks security breach in transit

Information shelf life

Some data, like intellifence photos or forensic data, can be most valuable if delivered in the fastest manner possible

End-to-end visibility of exchange

Tracking, managing, and reporting on transfers can be challenging. Are systems capable of line rate transfers when most needed?
