IBM Aspera

IBM Aspera is a suite of data transfer software for moving amounts of data quickly and securely, regardless of network conditions.

IBM Aspera is a high-speed file transfer technology that uses a patented protocol called FASP (Fast, Adaptive, Secure Protocol) moves large files faster than traditional methods like FTP. It is used across various industries for secure and reliable global data transfer, offering both cloud and on-premise deployment options. The service uses military-grade encryption and is designed to maximize bandwidth usage regardless of network conditions or distance.

IBM Aspera’s affordability varies significantly based on the product and usage model, with options ranging from a low-cost, pay-as-you-go plan for simple use cases to high-end enterprise editions and perpetual licenses for on-premises solutions.
