• Private: For those requiring private cloud environments or on-premises deployment, DataSprint can be easily set up and caters to the need for customisation, security and storage preferences. 

The IBM Aspera Protocol 

At the heart of DataSprint is the IBM Aspera FASP protocol – a fast, adaptive, secure protocol and efficient patented technology built to use UDP over the internet. It includes encryption, secure authentication, and FIPS compliance, positioning it in the professional class of file transfer applications. IBM Aspera’s adaptive rate control and priority management ensure optimal use of available bandwidth.
