What is Fortra's FileCatalyst?
Fortra’s FileCatalyst is a powerful accelerated file transfer solution designed to handle the rapid transfer of large files across any network, no matter the distance. By leveraging a client/server architecture, FileCatalyst is tailored to excel in environments where high latency or packet loss might otherwise slow down file transfers, making it ideal for remote networks.
How Does Fortra's FileCatalyst Work?
FileCatalyst uses a variety of innovative techniques to deliver lightning-fast file transfers. At its core, FileCatalyst operates on a UDP-based protocol, which significantly speeds up data transfer, even in challenging network conditions. To eliminate delays caused by traditional compression methods, FileCatalyst compresses files in real-time during transmission. In cases where UDP transfer isn't possible, TCP streaming ensures that acceleration continues smoothly. Additionally, the software employs delta transfer algorithms, allowing only the changes made to files to be sent, rather than the entire file. This method efficiently updates the original file at its destination.
