Organizations have never seen a greater need for reliable and secure file transfer. Digitalization is fueling growth in data at unprecedented rates. Managed file transfer (MFT) provides the near real-time integration necessary for applications as diverse as distribution of insurance claim records, synchronization of central and disaster-recovery sites, secure transfer of check image files, and consolidation of credit card transactions.
Secure file movement must also ensure data delivery to the intended destination within the right time window, so the receiving application can process and act upon it consistently avoiding delays to your critical business processes. The problem is, many existing file transfer “solutions” built on FTP do not have the necessary mechanisms to ensure consistent management, monitoring,and security of your critical data flows.
IBM Sterling Connect: Direct is the leading solution for secure, point-to-point file transfers. It has been optimized for highvolume, assured delivery of data within and between enterprises, and provides script-based automation, scheduling and alert notifications for 24×7 unattended operations. A key component of the IBM’s MFT solution, Connect: Direct, which allows organizations to automate the exchange of data between mission-critical applications regardless of platform. Unlike FTP implementations, Connect:Direct is designed from the ground up specifically for enterprise-class file transfer. It eliminates the need for manual intervention in data delivery, improving the productivity of your people and the reliability of your business processes.
