| Beta Systems Releases Harbor High-Speed File Transfer 2.4 Beta Systems Software AG has announced the availability of Harbor HFT (High-speed File Transfer) 2.4, an easy-to-administer managed file transfer system optimized for today's high data intensity environments. Harbor HFT allows organizations to quickly move large quantities of data - reliably and securely - with little impact to network resources. Harbor HFT 2.4 products are hardware independent and excel at transferring high volumes of encrypted data across server and client platforms. The product suite consists of: -- Harbor HFT Server 2.4 on z/OS - an easy-to-use, non-disruptive means of transferring large data files at ultra-high speed, in either direction, between open-systems and z/OS file systems and applications, or between z/OS servers. Supports direct application-to-application data transfer, taking full advantage of today's fastest data-transfer technologies. -- Harbor HFT Client 2.4 for Windows and Client 2.4 for Unix - installed on each open system or target z/OS mainframe, enabling data transfer between z/OS and open systems, or between z/OS systems. Client platforms supported include Windows NT/2000, AIX HP-UX, Solaris, LINUX. -- Harbor Transport Gateway 5.3 - When used with Harbor HFT 2.4 products, allows additional network security using expanded data encryption. Provides cost-effective high-speed communication that reduces mainframe CPU cycles versus traditional network data movement. Harbor HTF key benefits include five levels of compression for z/OS data movement; AES 128 & 256 encryption for secure data transfer for all HFT clients; a single point of control to monitor audit trails, transfer monitoring, and automated scheduling; and, fault tolerance checking. The totally re-engineered Harbor HFT 2.4 also results in a significant reduction in mainframe MIPS usage as well as improvements in elapsed time compared to older versions. Harbor HFT is licensed based on the number of HFT Clients that a HFT Server will support or by usage-based pricing, where a HFT Server can be licensed based on the total amount of data moved to and from it per year. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
