Name:Aspera SCP
Product URL:http://asperasoft.com/products/scp/index.html
Description:Aspera Scp is a complete file transfer application designed for business critical data transfers demanding maximum speed, predictability, and security.

Scp comes in two versions: Aspera Client and Aspera Scp for Point-to-Point. Both versions can connect to Aspera servers to transfer files, but Point-to-Point can additionally act as an Aspera server, and accept incoming connections from other Aspera-enabled computers. The Aspera Enterprise Server also includes server functionality.

Built on fasp transport technology, Aspera Scp enables the fastest possible file transfers on links of any speed independent of network latency and packet loss, and delivers a performance advantage of up to several hundred times the speed of standard FTP:

* On international DS-3s (45 Mbps), Scp users achieve 42-45 Mbps transfers, a 30X or better improvement over standard FTP. A one gigabyte file transfers in 3.25 minutes, as opposed to hours with FTP.
* Over the public Internet with only commodity PCs, Scp achieves 200-800 Mbps transfers, even between continents, with the throughput limited by the hardware resources, up to 1000X improvement over FTP.
* Users on T1s and other low bandwidth links realize 10X or better throughput to India and China

The performance advantage depends upon the available bandwidth and the TCP performance for the specific network path and dynamic conditions, as fasp can sustain transfers at the target rate with less than 1% protocol overhead, regardless of network conditions. Scp has precise pre-set and on-the-fly rate control per transfer for guaranteed finish times, and complete, built-in security. Every transfer is authenticated, encrypted on the fly, and verified to prevent piracy or tampering. The end-to-end progress and performance details are reported during the transfer and logged for easy integration into existing network monitoring and billing systems.
