Accelerating big data applications with multi-Gigabit-per-second file transfers

摘要

Aspera, an IBM company, provides a set of collaboration and file transfer technologies that leverage the Aspera FASP technology which is a distance neutral transfer technology. This paper will describe Aspera's FASP transfer technology, both next generation FASP which is designed for 100gbit/s transfers as well as our standard FASP technology. This paper will aslo describe how the FASP protocol integrates into high performance/high scalability environments.
