JSCAPE recently published a whitepaper titled How to Boost File Transfer Speeds 100x Without Increasing Your Bandwidth. This whitepaper discusses the known problems with TCP based file transfer protocols such as FTP and SFTP over high-latency networks and how to solve them using AFTP (Accelerated File Transfer Protocol).
AFTP (Accelerated File Transfer Protocol) is a file transfer protocol developed by JSCAPE. AFTP is designed to accelerate file transfers over high speed networks that are unable to fully utilize network throughput due to high latency and packet loss. Under these conditions AFTP can accelerate file transfers up to 100 times faster than FTP and other file transfer protocols.
