Transfer Anywhere has been replaced by GoAnywhere , which is the "next generation" solution for automating and securing data movement. Click here to learn more.
The Transfer Anywhere server engine can be installed onto either an iSeries or Windows server. This engine performs the actual transfer functions and provides a centralized point of control and monitoring. Since the Transfer Anywhere server engine supports multi-threading and can be scaled to process large amounts of transfer activity, typically only one instance of this engine is needed within your network.
Scenario 1: Pump data from a database directly to any other database that has a JDBC driver (ie. from DB2 on System i to SQL Server database.)
Scenario 2: Send a compressed Excel spreadsheet to a secure FTP site using SSH. Scenario 3: Retrieve data from an FTP site and write it to a local file system.
Scenario 4: Retrieve data from System i, encrypt with Open PGP ecryption and distribute via e-mail.
Authorized users can utilize the provided graphical Administrator client to perform configuration and monitoring functions within Transfer Anywhere. This Administrator client can be used to pre-define the resources available to Transfer Anywhere, which may include database servers within an organization, FTP Servers, E-mail addresses, SMTP servers and Key Stores.
An intuitive wizard is included within the Administrator for creating Transfer Definitions. This wizard allows the user to graphically select data sources, conversions, mappings, compression, encryption criteria and distribution lists when defining transfers. The Transfer Definitions are saved in the Transfer Anywhere central database for enterprise usage by authorized personnel and applications.
The Transfer Anywhere server engine can receive requests to execute Transfer Definitions from IP connected iSeries machines, Windows servers, Windows workstations, Linux workstations and many other devices and programming languages.
