What is IBM Aspera on Cloud?
IBM Aspera on Cloud is an on-demand SaaS offering for global content transfer and exchange. It enables organizations to move large files and data sets securely and reliably across on-premises and multi-cloud environments at high speed.
With Aspera on Cloud, organizations can store and access files and folders across multiple cloud-based and on-premises storage systems. Sharing among users is as simple as browsing or drag-and-drop — no matter where the files are stored — making collaboration easy for colleagues in both local and remote locations.
Aspera on Cloud uses IBM Aspera's FASP protocol, which overcomes the limitations of traditional file transfer technologies. It moves large data sets at maximum speed, securely and reliably — regardless of network conditions, distance between sites, or file size, type, or number. The Aspera technology enables faster collaboration, sharing, and content delivery across the globe.
