High-speed file transfers

The file transfer speeds of other methods are limited due to the geographical distance between the origin and destination, delays in the response of the standard protocol, and inefficient data exchange. Although companies have high-performance IT resources, due to non-hardware limitations, they cannot fully utilize these resources, such as high-performance mass storage/servers, high-capacity network equipment, and high-bandwidth networks.

Featuring Exabyter software-based transfer technology, these limitations can be easily overcome without network bandwidth expansion. This innovative technology can transfer all kinds of files at high-speed and also maximize the utilization efficiency of the company's IT resources.

Furthermore, additional features such as optimizing packets, intelligent compression, and transferring mass files at high-speed, along with various file transfer features, enable Exabyter to transfer files more quickly, even in unexpected environments that have not been predetermined.

High-speed file transfers

In existing standard transfer methods, UDP transfer loses a lot of data while transferring. Therefore, it unnecessarily uses too much bandwidth and requires opening many ports, resulting in threatened security. TCP transfer is very slow due to inefficient communication methods. Exabyter drastically improves these TCP low-speed problems and provides high-speed file transfer rates that are up to 30 times faster even in situations like low bandwidth, high latency, high loss, and other hostile environments.

Expands the limited transfer capacity

File transfer speeds in existing transfer methods are greatly affected by the devices, Oses, types of software and browsers, network conditions, overload of servers, etc. For the existing maximum speed to be exceeded, Exabyter expands transfer capacity at the software level, making file transfer speed the fastest in any environment.

Optimizes transfers by interval

Exabyter analyzes various transfer environments (file sizes, transfer distances, network conditions, etc.) and automatically optimizes transfers. According to the transfer environment, Exabyter determines the most optimal data size and data arrangement, as well as exchanges data back and forth with the server in every environment, as a result of these actions, Exabyter can transfer files at the fastest speed possible in any transfer environment.

Most ideal transfer method

Other transfer methods can only utilize minimal capacity so that bandwidth is wasted. As a result, file transfers are always slower and take a longer time. In addition, they cause various transfer problems such as frequent transfer failure, etc. Exabyter can utilize optimal capacity to enable file transfers to be quickly completed and the network to be cleaned up much faster. Exabyter fundamentally resolves the issue of having too many files remaining in the network for a long period of time. Therefore, more files can be exchanged in the same network without changing any IT infrastructure.

Increasing security threat situations

Security attacks have grown more sophisticated over time. Year by year, the number and scale of attacks have been increasing. Attack methods have also become more intelligent with the improvement of security solutions. Recently, due to organized domestic attacks as well as attacks from emerging countries, the overall threatened situations have been rapidly increasing.

High-speed transfer of mass files

When transferring a single file using existing file transfer methods, a fixed processing time is required due to the overhead of disk I/O and networks. Even if each file size is small, when a large number of files are being transferred, the transfer speed will rapidly slow down, regardless of the total file size. Exabyter drastically improves these slowdown issues. Even if tens of thousands of files are transferred, Exabyter always transfers files at high speeds at the same rate as a single file without any speed delay.

Exabyter vs. HTTP/FTP

Standard HTTP is only a temporary measure to transfer small-sized files. For improved transfers, most companies that initially selected FTP are now trying to find new alternatives for file transfers due to the numerous problems associated with FTP, such as weak security, management burdens, slow speed, etc. Today, Exabyter provides these companies with the following advantages:

Problems of existing transfer alternatives

1. Hardware WAN accelerators can only improve in-house web data speed and cannot improve file transfer speed. It takes a long time to accumulate redundant data and use the cached data.
2. Quality of service (QoS) equipment cannot improve the underlying speed issues because equal distribution through the restriction of bandwidth can enable the user's files to stay in the network for a longer time.
3. Network bandwidth expansion is an alternative solution. Even with its high fixed costs, transfer efficiency can only be minimally improved. Therefore, it is only mainly used for speed improvement in specific environments.
4. CDN services place servers in a specific area and can only provide download services of the cached data to users in that area.
5. Traditional software-based transfer products lead to new security issues. They need to separately open ports and turn off the DDoS attack detection/prevention equipment because they use UDP. Even though these products demand the need for more expensive relay servers to handle the increase in traffic, they can only be used in a very limited user environment because users will not be able to transfer files when users have a slight difference in security and network environments.

Brand new Exabyter

1. No security threat
Exabyter uses the HTTP protocol that is already being used in all web-based business systems so that Exabyter can transfer files at high speeds with no security threats and no impact on the existing security policy.

2. Minimal costs
Exabyter is a pure software-based product that uses existing web/WAS servers without any additional hardware costs so that Exabyter can be implemented faster and offers lower costs compared to other alternatives.

3. High-speed transfers for all users
Unlike other products that can only be used in specific network conditions, Exabyter can dramatically improve file transfer speeds for all users in networks such as in-house networks, distributed branches, overseas business partners, as well as users in a vast range of environments, according to the company's needs.
