Raysync is outstanding in the transfer of large files and massive small files.

On July 10th, 2020, Raysync has released a new version named V5.0.3.8. This file transfer upgrade not only improves the visual experience of the whole file transfer software, but also adds a lot of practical functions, and gives enterprise users four surprises in technical support. The following describes some update functions of the V5.0.3.8 version:
1. Optimization on the UI. The new version optimizes the effect presentation and plate position of all pages of the management console, and the lightweight design makes the interface simpler and the user's visual experience better.
2. Supports 4 types of transfer protocol configuration, that facilitates the users’ various needs: 1.Automatically select UDP/TCP: Support setting when UDP transfer delay is less than milliseconds, automatically switch to TCP; 2. Only UDP transfer: Only use UDP transfer; 3. Only TCP transfer; 4. System default: UDP transfer is preferred by default, and automatically switch to TCP transfer when the transfer is interrupted.
3. Two-way synchronization mode makes backup more flexible, simple and detailed, which avoids missing files in the backup process and releases the hands of manual copying.
Two-way synchronization tasks are carried out in sequence, from client to server upload synchronization, to download server to client download synchronization.
4. Support Raysync download verification to ensure file integrity. When downloading a file, if there is a file with the same name in the download directory, it will be compared with the file on the server, and the server will only send different data for downloading to ensure file integrity.
5. Add "External Http Authentication" for third-party authentication.
6. Add the "Import" button for LDAP authentication. After configuring LDAP/AD domain information in "third-party authentication" of the management console, users can import accounts in the LDAP/AD domain to the Raysync server.
7. Support setting forbidden access path in account home directory. Note the path filling rule: root directory.
In addition to the above functions, in view of the special needs of some enterprises, we have also made more support for transferring command lines, which is more convenient for technicians to operate.
8. The transfer command line supports wildcards to upload/download files. For example, if the file starting with D1D052 in the local D:\openssl folder is uploaded to the root directory of the server, then the command line is rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -p 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o upload -d / -s d:/openssl/ -reg ^D1D052.*$
9. The transfer command line supports moving a single folder or file, such as moving the server \openssl\01 folder to the root directory, then the command line is rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -p 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o move -s /openssl/01 -d /01
The transfer command line supports moving multiple folders or files, such as moving the server \openssl\01 \openssl\02 folder to the root directory, then the command line is rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -p 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o move -s /openssl/01 -s /openssl/02 -d /
10. The transfer command line supports copying a single folder or file, such as copying the server \openssl\01 folder to the root directory, then the command line is rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -p 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o copy -s /openssl/01 -d /01
The transfer command line supports copying multiple folders or files, such as copying the server \openssl\01 \openssl\02 folder to the root directory, then the command line is rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -p 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o copy -s /openssl/01 -s /openssl/02 -d /
11. The transfer command line supports specifying the modification target file name, such as uploading the local D:\openssl\abc.jpg file to the root directory of the server and modifying the abc.jpg as ddd.jpg rayfile-c.exe -a 192.168.186.137 -P 32001 -u test -w Raysync@123 -o upload -s d:/openssl/abc.jpg -d / -t ddd.jpg

Today’s business demands are fast-paced and unrelenting. When it comes to meeting these demands, efficiency is often the crux. Inefficiencies within the IT infrastructure can create a chain reaction of problems. The end result? More time and money is spent troubleshooting and problem-solving. Even worse is failing to deliver services and products to customers or failing to meet compliance regulations.
The common ways individuals and organizations move data from point A to point B include email, FTP, HTTP, consumer file sharing applications, or even the physical delivery of a USB drive or paper files and documents. With each method of moving data from point A to point B, there are many, many risks and limitations.
According to the survey, using the Managed File Transfer platform to automatically execute the file transfer workflow enables users to manage complex mass workflows with greater flexibility and capacity, thus enabling organizations to manage their security, compliance and productivity priorities more effectively.
Based on the self-developed transfer protocol, MFT is a more efficient and safe way comparing to the traditional FTP transfer. After using it, the efficiency of file transfer between employees in the enterprise and between employees and external partners has been significantly improved. The test results show that using Raysync can increase the transfer speed by 10-100 times in one second.
After solving the problem of efficiency and focusing on safety, employees' file transfer is not standardized, or the incidents of employees destroying and leaking confidential documents of the company are repeatedly prohibited. The file-hosting platform usually has the functions of log supervision and permission setting, such as Raysync Transmission, recording each operation log in detail, setting detailed operation permissions, allowing corresponding permissions to be used by corresponding people, and reducing the risk of the data leakage caused by the human operation. At the same time, Raysync also adopts financial grade AES-256 encryption transfer technology to ensure the safety and integrity of transfer data and meet the compliance requirements.
Raysync Transmission also has file synchronization function, and the files of the server and client are synchronized in both directions, which saves the troublesome of manual copying, improves efficiency, and reduces the data omission caused by manual copying.

Case study: An intelligent technology company urgently needs to transfer 8TB of R&D data to the Swiss branch, and there is no urgent need for big data transfer at ordinary times.
Customer demand analysis:
1. "Urgent" demand: R&D data needs to be distributed to the Swiss branch as soon as possible and put into production immediately. If you mail the hard disk or the traditional FTP transfer method, you can't meet the customer's demand for the timely delivery of the data.
2. Cost control requirements: The companies’ big data transfer has the characteristics of low frequency. The company has not set enough budget for the big data transfer project. After understanding the data transfer solutions in the market, it is found that a set of software needs to cost hundreds of thousands, which will cause serious waste of resources and financial resources, which is inconsistent with the needs of the company.
3. Flexible requirements: Just like the urgent transfer of 8TB files to Switzerland this time, we can't predict whether the next large file transfer task will also be affected by unexpected factors, that is, the transfer software pay-as-you-go plan is the best choice for enterprises.
4. Data security requirements: Production R&D data is the lifeblood of enterprise production and operation, and its importance is self-evident. In the process of transfer, due to poor network environment and long transfer distance, it may lead to low transfer efficiency, and file transfer security loopholes are more likely to occur. The leakage of R&D data will bring a devastating blow to enterprises. Considering the need to transmit enterprise R&D data overseas, the company has high requirements for the security of the transfer process.
5. Requirements for easy-to-use: The company's big data transfer frequency is low, the interface is simple, the operation is simple, and the convenient and fast transfer software is deployed, which will greatly reduce the time cost for employees to learn to use the software, and the work of data uploading and downloading will get started faster.
The Raysync server is deployed at the Nanjing headquarters of the company, and the team members of the Swiss branch can log in to Raysync through IP address and port number, so as to easily upload and download the production R&D data.
Compared with the traditional FTP transfer, the timeliness of Raysync transfer is improved by 96%.
The values Raysync pay-as-you-go brings to customers:

We have been talking about data integration, but that doesn't mean we all understand it. It seems simple to talk about data integration, but when we explain the definition, we will find many different explanations. In order to avoid obscuring the concept of data integration, today we will start from the common data integration types in 5, and have a deep understanding of data integration.
The definition of data integration
According to the definition given by China Science Communication, data integration is to logically or physically concentrate data with different sources, formats, and characteristics, so as to provide comprehensive data sharing for enterprises and make data more valuable. IBM pointed out that "data integration is the integration of technology and business processes, which realizes the integration of data from different sources into meaningful and valuable information."
1 Data Consolidation
ETL pulls data from sources, transforms it into an understandable format, and then transfers it to another database or data warehouse. The ETL process cleans, filters, and transforms data, and then applies business rules before data populates the new source.
2 Data Dissemination
Data dissenminationj is the use of applications to copy data from one location to another. It is event-driven and can be done synchronously or asynchronously. Most synchronous data propagation supports two-way data exchange between source and target. Enterprise application integration and enterprise data replication technologies support data dissemination.
EAI integrates application systems for the exchange of messages and transactions. It is often used for real-time business transaction processing. The integration platform as a service is a modern approach to EAI integration.
EDR typically transfers large amounts of data between databases, instead of applications. base triggers and logs are used to capture and disseminate data changes between the source and remote databases.
3 Data Virtualization
Data virtualization is an inclusive term used to describe all data management methods, which allow applications to retrieve and manage data without technical details related to data, such as its format or physical location. Data can be viewed in one place, but cannot be stored in that place. Data virtualization can retrieve and interpret data, but it doesn't need a uniform format or a single access point.
4 Data Federation
Technically, Federation is a form of data virtualization. It uses virtual database and creates general data model for heterogeneous data from different systems. Data is aggregated and can be viewed from a single access point. Enterprise Information Integration is a technology that supports data union. It uses abstract data to provide a unified view of data from different sources, and then presents or analyzes data in a new way through applications.
In the face of the high cost of data integration or excessive security and compliance problems, virtualization and federated authentication are good solutions.
5 Data warehouse
Data warehouse is a strategic collection that provides all types of data support for the decision-making process at all levels of enterprises. It is a single data store created for analytical reporting and decision support purposes. Provide guidance for business process improvement, monitoring time, cost, quality and control for enterprises that need business intelligence.
The data warehouse is integrated, and the data in the data warehouse comes from scattered operational data. The required data can be extracted from the original data, processed and integrated, and unified and integrated before entering the data warehouse.
We will find that no matter which integration type is mentioned above, it reflects a key point. Data integration needs to achieve integration through data exchange between applications. Since data exchange and transfer are involved, it is suggested that you can enter two systems, namely Raysync large file transfer system and SDK integration system, and actually experience several stages of integration work.

In the era of information explosion, enterprises are more dependent than ever on obtaining, distributing and utilizing all kinds of information to promote their development. At the same time, if you want to gain and maintain the position of industry leader, enterprises must have ways to make full use of available data.
Achieving the above goals is a complicated process, and one of the most critical components is to ensure the secure file sharing among employees in the enterprise. If employees can't share information conveniently, quickly and safely, the data will probably lose its greatest value, thus damaging the overall competitiveness of enterprises.
With this in mind, Raysync Transmission, as an enterprise-level file transfer expert, shares three skills for enterprises to realize secure file sharing.
1. Select High-quality Software Tools
To ensure effective and secure file sharing, enterprises must choose high-quality file transfer tools to ensure the integrity and security of data. But what complicates this option is how to pick out the safe and effective file sharing tools in the market.
What should enterprises focus on when evaluating file sharing solutions? In addition to the need to protect corporate data from network attacks such as malware and viruses, these solutions must also be easy for employees to use. This is often overlooked by enterprises. Many enterprises choose high-quality file sharing solutions that cost a lot of money, but it is difficult for employees to use or take more time, so employees will inevitably tend to use simple file sharing tools that make their work easier. Although these third-party software has low security or has not passed security inspection at all.
Only by giving priority to the user experience can enterprises find a secure file sharing solution, which really provides advanced data protection and is efficient, convenient, reliable, and easy to operate. For example, like Raysync Transmission, both file sharing and file transfer can be quickly controlled and accepted by employees.
2. Create a Security-oriented Culture
As mentioned above, employee adoption of secure file sharing tools is essential for guaranteeing that corporate data remains secure. A big part of achieving this goal is creating a security-oriented culture throughout the company.
With the passage of time, employees will become laxer and laxer about the content of the rules, and the decline of the compliance with the rules will gradually increase the risk of data leakage. Enterprises need to establish a sense of information security, including data acquisition, transferring, sharing, editing, application, etc., and through stage training, continuously strengthen this sense of security to create a safe information environment.
3. Regular Review
Once a secure file sharing solution and related policies are in place, it is critical for firms to actively monitor security and user activities in regard to data protection. Here we can refer to the functional design of Raysync, external chain monitoring, etc., and deeply control the direction of internal file transfer and data management and control, so as to realize safe file sharing.
At the same time, the data threats faced by the company also include external cybercriminals, and the continuous development of science and technology also brings system loopholes that are not checked and filled in time under the system upgrade. At present, even the most advanced secure file sharing program may not guarantee the information security of enterprises in a few years. Therefore, enterprises must regularly review solutions to ensure that they meet all security requirements.
