AWS Transfer Family vs. IBM Aspera on Cloud

AWS Transfer Family offers fully managed support for the transfer of files over SFTP, AS2, FTPS, FTP, and web browsers directly into and out of Amazon S3 or Amazon EFS. You can seamlessly migrate, automate, and monitor your file transfer workflows by maintaining existing client-side configurations for authentication, access, and firewalls — so nothing changes for your customers, partners, and internal teams, or their applications.

IBM Aspera on Cloud is a hosted SaaS service of IBM Aspera. Rather than optimize or accelerate data transfer, IBM Aspera’s high-speed data transfer fully utilizes available network bandwidth to maximize speed and quickly scale up with no theoretical limit, without impacting other network traffic. The result is unmatched transfer speeds, end-to-end security, reliability, and exceptional bandwidth control. IBM Aspera on Cloud also offers intuitive file sharing, big data transfer, workflow automation, central administration, and real-time visibility.
