aspera faspex™ server

global person-to-person file delivery


The Aspera faspex™ Server provides an intuitive, efficient way for individuals and groups to collaborate and exchange files and directories of any size, over any distance. Aspera breaks the bottleneck for big data—through an easy, flexible, and secure web platform for global file collaboration and delivery. From anywhere in the world, collaborators can easily send, receive, and share information using faspex™ Server.

Users can choose from a variety of user interfaces and applications to send and receive digital deliveries including an easy-to-use web interface, a Microsoft Outlook client using the Aspera add-in, an iPhone or iPad device using Aspera faspex mobile for iOS, or Cargo, a simple automatic download desktop widget. Recipients are notified via e-mail and Aspera’s patented fasp™ transport technology handles the movement of data to and from the server.

Built for enterprise workflows of any scale, the Aspera faspex™ Server includes comprehensive user and server administration capabilities, can be remotely monitored and controlled via Aspera Console – Aspera’s centralized web-based transfer management application, and provides comprehensive security and optional encryption of the file content over the wire and at rest while it is stored on the server.

Applications and Use Cases
  • Internal and external distribution of digital assets within and outside the enterprise
  • Digital delivery and collaborative file transfer with external partners
  • Automated distribution of files
  • Collaboration enablement for geographically-distributed teams
  • File-based review, approval and quality assurance workflows
  • Secure file contribution for remote users and partner companies

     


Powerful Drop Box Capability
Now users from anywhere in the world can be invited via email to contribute and upload content to private areas, visible only to specific users--with private tracking and notification. 

Invitations to upload files can be sent to contributors through email, simply by entering email addresses, and upload/contribution privileges can be set to auto-expire using time-based policies. 

Metadata entries for drop boxes are fully configurable per drop box, with metadata stored as an XML file on the server, and rich reporting available through Aspera Console.		  


Fully integrated automatic download
Drop box and standard submissions, as well as faspex™'s multi-server relay features, are fully integrated with the Aspera Cargo Downloader, allowing easy end-to-end faspex™ distribution of content to global clients.

Advanced policy-based encryption

Advanced encryption-at-rest policies can be defined for standard package sending and drop boxes.  Individual drop boxes can be configured to require encryption-at-rest for all content contributed through the drop box. Policies can be set per drop box or system wide, and include a new policy allowing the sender to determine if encryption at rest is used. Fully integrated with Aspera Cargo Downloader and Aspera Connect, the decryption of downloaded packages is a simple one-click operation.

Unlimited scale out

A 3-tier application architecture allows the Enterprise Server to be deployed in a cluster, separate from the faspex™ server for unlimited scale out of transfer performance and network capacity.
