We're pleased to present Raysync v6.3.8.0.. Let's take a look at what updates have been made. Function 1. Distinguish between General Upload and High Speed Upload The new version of Raysync distinguishes between General Upload and High Speed Upload . Two optimization items have been made for web page transfer. First, users can directly drag files from the local file manager to the web page for uploading, which greatly facilitates the user's operating habits; Second, the downloaded files will be automatically saved in zip format. High speed upload refers to the use of Raysync client for transfer, and its performance and speed will be better than general upload. Function 2. Support antivirus after uploading files During network data transfer, some virus files are often mixed in archive files, but it does not mean virus free. In the new version of Raysync, we have added the Antivirus function. Raysync mainly uses ClamAV virus scanning tool to scan the uploaded files and will move the infected files to Isolation Zone. 1) Administrator enable the Antivirus setting in the Admin Portal 2) Enter the clamdscan directory of the deployment server and execute updatedb.sh to update the virus database. After the update is complete, the files uploaded via the Raysync Client will be checked by the server for virus scanning. 3) When the uploaded files are scanned for viruses, the infected files are moved to Isolation Zone. Function 3. Delete and Recover deleted files from recycle bin The new version optimizes the recycle bin functions. For files in recycle bin, the Administrator can view, delete and restore. Function 4. New functions for Sync Tasks 1) Support sync by week. You can specify a certain time period every week to perform sync transfer tasks. The sync frequency is more flexible now. 2) Rename files is supported. When a file with the same name already exists in the target path, transferring the file with the same name will be renamed to avoid overwriting the target file directly. 3) Overwrite when source is newer. When a file with the same name already exists in the target path, if the file with the same name is transferred again, the modification time of the source file and the target file will be compared. If the source file is newer, the target file will be overwritten, but if the source file time is older than the target file, it will not be transferred. This ensures that the target path file is the latest file. Function 5. Add quick selection mount disk when selecting files via Mac client  The new version of the Mac client supports the quick selection of files on the mount disk. Users can more intuitively select files in the system mount drive for transfer, which improves the ease of use of the client. Function 6. Add data statistics in the Admin Portal A statistics module has been added to the Admin Portal, and Administrator can view the statistics of storage, collaborative, and flow more intuitively. In addition to the above functions, we have also optimized account management, server speed limit, live transfer speed and progress, approval strategy and other functions.

Transnational file transfer software is a problem that multinational companies need to face because it involves cross-regional transfer methods, then it will be interfered with by various factors, such as network speed, policy, security, etc. Below is our list of top 5 Transnational file transfer software. Cloud Network Disk This includes *Dropbox/GoogleDrive/Microsoft OneDrive/WeTransfer*. It is not difficult to see that these are some of the more commonly used network disks, but there will be some file size restrictions. Microsoft OneDrive Microsoft OneDrive supports 5GB storage space, if it is a single file, the maximum upload limit is 10GB, under normal circumstances, domestic users to transfer files overseas, the speed is normal. OneDrive has client software, supports file synchronization, and transmission supports breakpoint resumes. WeTransfer WeTransfer has no storage space limitation. The maximum limit of a single file is 2GB. The file will automatically expire after 7 days of storage. If it is accessed in China, the speed is slower, and the average is about 150KB. Currently only supports Web page upload, does not support file synchronization, does not support breakpoint resume, if the transmission is interrupted, you need to try again, limited to small file transmission better. Network disk system You need to build a network disk system yourself, which can support file synchronization. In the free version, it can support 3 clients. You need to apply for a server to install the software. There is no storage space limit, and there is no limit on the size of a single file transfer, but if you need to go from abroad If it is transmitted domestically, the transmission speed will be slower. Raysync Raysync is a professional open-source file transfer system independently developed by domestic companies. It can support large file transmission and file synchronization. The large file transfer software is better optimized for cross-border transmission. This data transfer method is suitable for enterprise users to transfer large files or cross-regional, cross-border transmission. Raysync transmission optimizes the existing network bandwidth and provides stable, secure transnational data transmission services. Other file transfer software exist in the market, but we can vouch for these 5. Ensure to take advantage of these data transmission services to improve your experience.

What is the difference between FTPS and SFTP? Let us first look at the technology behind each protocol, and then look at its advantages and limitations. What is FTPS and SFTP? FTPS is a name used to provide multiple ways for FTP software to perform secure file transfers. Each involves the use of a lower than standard FTP protocol SSL/TLS layer to encrypt the control and/or data channel. SFTP is a network protocol that provides file transfer and manipulation capabilities over any reliable data stream. It is typically used with the SSH-2 protocol to provide secure file transfers, but can also be used with other protocols. What is the Difference between FTPS and SFTP? SFTP is not a form of FTP. They are two completely different protocols. In fact, FTPS and SFTP are completely unrelated and only have similarities in the structure of many commands. FTPS is FTP with SSL, which is for security. It uses a control channel and opens a new connection for data transfer. Since it uses SSL, it requires a certificate. SFTP is designed as an extension to SSH to provide file transfer capabilities, and based on this, it typically only uses the SSH port for data and control. In most SSH server installations, you will get SFTP support, but FTPS requires additional configuration of a supported FTP server. Advantages and disadvantages of FTPS/SFTP The advantages of FTPS High level of use Communication can be read and understood Provides for server-to-server file transfers SSL/TLS has a good authentication mechanism FTP and SSL/TLS support is built into many Internet communication frameworks The disadvantages of FTPS There is no uniform directory listing format Requires a secondary DATA channel, which makes it difficult to use behind a firewall No standard for filename character set defined Not all FTP servers support SSL/TLS No standard way to get and change file or directory attributes The advantages of SFTP Has a good standards background that strictly defines most, if not all, aspects of operations Only one connection Connections are always secure Directory listings are uniform and machine-readable The protocol includes operation of permissions and attributes, file locking and more features The disadvantages of SFTP Communication is binary and cannot be recorded "as is" for human reading SSH keys are more difficult to manage and verify The standard defines some content as optional or recommended, which can lead to some compatibility issues between different software titles from different vendors. No server-to-server copy and recursive directory deletion operations No built-in SSH/SFTP support in the VCL and .NET frameworks

If you just recorded a home video or created the final hybrid tape , then you will undoubtedly be eager to share it with your friends and family. Depending on the size and number of files you need to send, this may be a problem. For example, Gmail only allows you to attach files up to 25MB to emails. Not to mention the fact that large files lurking in the "Sent" folder will quickly take up your storage space quota! If you need to send large files online, there are many good ways to avoid trouble. We highlight the 12 best files transfer methods, most of which are free . Use a VPN What is the relationship between VPN and sharing large files? Some Internet service providers use broadband traffic management to regulate upload bandwidth . Using a VPN as our first choice ExpressVPN means that your ISP cannot determine the type of file you are uploading, so in theory, traffic shaping cannot be applied to your account. Use specialized services The new generation of file transfer service is browser-based and has built-in proprietary technology to accelerate the upload of large files. Raysync is one of them and specializes in transferring large files via the cloud. But the advantages are clear: Raysync is faster, more secure and more efficient than other transfer methods. In addition, Raysync offers a free trial opportunity. Use file compression One of the easiest ways to solve the problem of sending large files is to use file compression software, such as the cross-platform program 7-Zip. This is especially convenient if you have multiple files because you can put them in a folder and then compress them all at once. 7-Zip is suitable for Windows, Mac, and Linux, and can compress files into regular ZIP format, and it's slightly more efficient than 7ZIP. Most major operating systems can extract ZIP files without any other software. 7-Zip also allows you to set a password to protect the files, so you can share them safely. Please keep in mind that although uploading very large files may time out. Express 20TB external hard drive The fastest way to transfer massive large files is not via the Internet, but to use disk drives and messengers. All large cloud providers can use hard drives to transfer large amounts of data. Microsoft Azure charges a nominal fixed fee, which means that it costs approximately US$75 per storage device, but you must be prepared to provide your drives. This is similar to Amazon Web Services' import/export disk, while Google uses a third party. The WD My Book Duo external hard drive is priced at $749.99 and has a capacity of 20TB , making it the largest and most cost-effective device in its class. On a consumer-grade broadband line, it will take more than 500 hours to transmit the contents of a 20TB external hard drive on a 100Mb dedicated line, and it is expected to last more than a month and is only used for uploading. Remember to keep a copy of the file and encrypt the hard drive to be sent. 5. Google Drive Although Gmail messages can only contain attachments up to 25MB, when the file is too large, Google can give you the option to place it in Google Drive and send a link for sharing. Gmail users can share files and folders up to 10GB. Considering that Google's free tier can provide you with 15GB of storage space, so you can share large files repeatedly for absolutely free . Google allows you to choose to create a link that can be shared with anyone or just to create a link to the person who sent you an email with the link. 6. FTP Although FTP may be outdated compared to cloud services such as Dropbox and Google Drive, it is still one of the most reliable methods for uploading and downloading files. All operating systems support FTP, and many websites and add-ons support uploading and downloading from your browser, such as FireFTP. Windows and Mac users can also use the free desktop FTP client Cyber duck. The only disadvantage is that you need to have access to remote servers . Many companies like DriveHQ provide some free storage space , and the price is comparable to cloud storage providers. 7. Mediafire True to its name, MediaFire is a pioneer. Sign up for a free account and you will get 10GB of storage space. Connect your Facebook and Twitter accounts, install mobile apps, and refer friends to get up to 40GB of bonus space. You can upload files directly from your computer or the web and generate a link that will allow others to download the file from the MediaFire website. The paid subscription costs US$3.75 per month and includes 1TB of storage space, a 20GB file size limit, and the elimination of annoying verification codes and advertisements. Another convenient advanced feature is a one-time link, which ensures that once the recipient downloads the files, they can no longer be accessed. 8. Hightail Hightail has considered the needs of business users. After registration, you can create special "spaces" for various files and projects, which can then be shared with others. The convenient "PipPoints" function can even be used to take notes on documents while you and others are working on them. The free Lite version of Hightail only allows files up to 100MB to be shared. The Pro subscription is priced at US$12 per month, which includes unlimited workspace and supports files up to 25GB. There is also no limit to the number of people who can access a file at any given time. 9. WeTransfer WeTransfer is one of the simplest services for sharing large files. With just a few clicks, the website will automatically send you the files, which can be downloaded for 7 days. Everything is also very user-friendly, with a step-by-step wizard to guide you through the upload process. You can transfer up to 2GB on a free account, but for US$12 per month or US$120 per year , you can upgrade to WeTransfer Plus, which can transfer up to 20GB of files at a time, and 1TB Storage. Besides, you can choose to set a password to download the file-in addition, and customize the background and email as needed. 10. Resilio synchronization This handy tool used to be BitTorrent Sync, which uses the BitTorrent protocol and can directly synchronize files between devices. This peer-to-peer connection can be used for two or more devices, such as phones and desktop PCs. Resilio Sync also supports generating secure links to allow your contacts to download files from your folder. This naturally means that your device must be online at the time to be accessible. The software itself is provided for free, and there is no limit to how much data you can transfer or store. Note: Only "Personal Sync" is free. Sync Home adds more features and is priced at US$60 , while Sync for Family can accommodate up to 5 family members and retails for US$100 . 11. Send Anywhere Send Anywhere is suitable for almost every platform you can think of and can transfer files up to 10GB completely free. Which is suitable for Windows, macOS, Linux and Amazon Kindle, as well as plugins for WordPress and Outlook. The browser widget allows you to share files up to 10GB, but the paid service allows you to share files without restrictions. 12. Dropbox Sign up for this cloud storage service and you can share all files moved into the Dropbox folder using a web link. Some operating systems allow you to do this by right-clicking, while other operating systems may require you to log in to the site and click the "share" link. Most importantly, the person you send the link to does not have to be a Dropbox user-they just need to download the file from the site. Dropbox has a free tier that gives you 2GB of storage space, but you can earn more by referring friends to use the service-or by signing up for Dropbox Plus for $9.99 a month to increase the limit to 2TB. The latter also allows you to better control files, including version control and remote device wipe and can set download passwords. Conclusion To find a flexible solution with security and speed, cloud storage is the only way to go. Cloud solutions such as Raysync, Google Drive, Dropbox, and the like provide amazingly flexible pricing and even free storage.

What is the file synchronization service? File synchronization is a method of keeping files that are stored in several different physical locations up to date. It has grown increasingly important as enterprises use the cloud as a means for collaboration. It is also commonly used for backup and for mobile access to files. File syncing software is used to store copies of on-premises data to another device or to the cloud. The files are typically available to be accessed via a Web-based portal. Some examples of file sync software include Raysync, Box, Syncplicity, and Dropbox. There are two types of file sync: One-way synchronization pushes files from your source platform to the destination system. On the other hand, two-way synchronization pushes and pulls files in both directions, from both systems. In one-way sync, files are copied only from a primary location to a secondary location in one direction, but no files are ever copied back to the primary location. Replication and Backup are one-way sync methods in ViceVersa. In two-way sync, ViceVersa copies files in both directions, keeping the two locations in sync with each other. Synchronization and Consolidation are two-way sync methods in ViceVersa. How file synchronization works and how to implement it? How you implement file synchronization will depend on your needs. And there are several file syncing techniques you can use. These can include using a hosted system, using a third-party tool, and creating your own sync system for instance. The best file-syncing solutions provide a simple solution to copy and back up your files from different devices, whether you are at work, at home, or on the go. In addition to storing and syncing data, most syncing solutions also come with additional tools not just for managing your saved data but also for managing user access and permissions, to allow for file sharing and collaboration with stored files. In this artile, we feature what we think are the best file-syncing solutions currently available. GoodSync GoodSync is an established company that provides file synchronization and backup software services. Set up is easy, and just requires you to install the software, select target files and folders, then set up automation functions for backups and syncing. And that's pretty much it. The simplicity of use hides the fact that this is a powerful solution that comes in a couple of different forms. One is GoodSync ServerOS which provides backups and synchronization for Windows and Linux servers. The other is the GoodSync File Server, which allows specified files and folders to be backed up and synced to a private cloud, with various rules and automation options available to ensure everything is easily managed. Resilio Sync Resilio Sync has an interesting background story: it was spun out of BitTorrent Inc, which means that it has peer-to-peer technology as part of its DNA. P2P is a tried and trusted protocol that is particularly useful for sending large files swiftly. It is one of the very few services that is compatible with Linux as well as a slew of Network Attached Storage solutions . Unlike most of what we’ve covered here, Resilio Sync is not a cloud-based file syncing solution. Instead, it relies on devices connected in peer-to-peer mode for the syncing process. There’s a free version and a paid offering which links all your devices, has a one-time send feature, a selective sync feature and the ability to add folders to all your devices automatically. You will need to install this on all devices that you want to sync between. Raysync File sync means that a local folder is designated as a synchronized folder. By creating, copying, pasting, modifying, and deleting files in the synchronized folder, the system will automatically update the changed files synchronously, so that the local files in the synchronized folder are always consistent with the folder stored in the cloud. Raysync file synchronization function, through the core technologies independently researched and developed, such as high-speed engine technology and high-speed transfer protocol technology, establishes a data synchronization solution in line with the business scenarios of enterprise users. Tutorial of Raysync file synchronization: 1. Select the files to be synchronized, and click to create the sync folder task. 2. Select the path to be passed. “Source” refers to the files to be synchronized, and “Target” refers to the storage location of the files to be synchronized. Raysync supports bidirectional synchronization between server and client, that is, server files can be synchronized to client and client files can be synchronized to the server. 3. Synchronization time can be set according to specific requirements, for example, you can set synchronization every 1 second; You can also set synchronization at a certain point in time, such as 10 am every day. Now, file sync only once is also available in sync schedule setting. Conclusion Good tools can effectively improve the efficiency of the transfer, file syncing in time can be fast and accurate to convey information, but also as a backup channel. Raysync has excellent features in file synchronization, which is a software for data transfer and file synchronization.

Studio 51 is a Mumbai and Beijing-based visual effects production studio, dedicated to the film, entertainment, and advertising industries. Studio 51 offers professional services including VFX, concept design, pre-production, shoot supervision, and post-production. Studio Head, Mr. Varun Hadkar, graduated from Manchester Business School and The University of Kent, UK , and has 19 years of experience in film and TV VFX. He has worked in the production of many famous film and TV blockbusters. In this interview, Varun shares some of his unforgettable production experiences and future plans for Studio 51 with us. Varun’s love for the film industry started in the early 2000s. He believes that each project that he has worked on has had its own unforgettable moments and challenges during the initial stage, shooting, and also post-shooting. His current role as a supervisor requires team management as well as understanding the requirements of clients and directors. His team, based in China and India, often uploads and Sync’s large amounts of data. Hence a stable, fast, and long-distance transfer service is vital for his work. Check out the Full Interview with Varun Hadkar! Raysync: Hi Varun! Thank you for accepting our interview! Would you briefly introduce yourself? Varun: I studied commerce and finance during my undergrad years. I also had a keen interest in filmmaking and started in the film/ television industry back then, by doing small jobs in productions like MTV. After doing a few gigs, I landed a job in Rhythm and Hues, which was one of the most highly-reputed companies, over a decade ago. After gaining a great deal of valuable experience at RnH, I left India and went to the UK to pursue further studies and work. Its was here that I completed my Masters from the University of Kent and a few years later, my MBA, from the University of Manchester. I had the opportunity to learn from and work together with some fantastic people in world-class studios. From there, I travelled to Asia— worked with Double Negative, in Singapore then BASE, in China for a few years. I’ve worked on many aspects of film — including producing, partially directing, and supervising. With my combined experience in these areas, I was able to establish Studio 51. We started as a VFX company but have diversified into Film production, AI, virtual production, and film making too. Raysync: Could you share unforgettable production experiences with us? Varun: Back when I was working with DNEG on a movie called Bridge of Spies produced by Spielberg, there were about 60-70 shots of VFX which were managed by a small team. In production, we generally do these temp comps to show the director what the shot looks like. Everybody did a version for their own shot, every shot is different. My shot went to the Director, Producer, and Spielberg's comment came in, “this looks great, final”! This was a big highlight for me. First off, this never happens on a shot of that scale. And for me, I got a direct comment from him. This was a great moment. He is a personality a lot of fans, filmmakers, artists look up to. Raysync: As a visual effects supervisor for Avengers, Salvage Marines, and Wandering Earth, what's the most challenging part, and how did you make it? Varun: Every project is different. With Avengers I was with Base, working under ILM. The great thing was that ILM gave us creative freedom. However, that also made the task that much challenging— getting the creative process approved by the director, in our case director Usually, the process of approval goes through a number of steps until we reach the director's approval. With some luck and with the help of our talented artists, the work that we produced at Base was high quality and was approved by ILM. The director's approval too came fairly quickly. For Wandering Earth, I think one of my biggest challenges was the language barrier. The entire crew spoke Chinese. Being on the set, trying to get the ideas across in front of the director, ensuring the crew understood each aspect, basically taking massive chunks of work, breaking it down to parts and funnelling it to key people, so that we were all on the same page— that was one of the most challenging things for me. This was a large-scale sci-fi film, so it definitely came with its usual challenges. Creatively, most aspects progressed steadily since the director already had a great vision and we also already had a fabulous concept artist. We had an experienced, talented art director, so that made things smooth. The film did really well, turned out to be one of the biggest blockbusters in China. Salvage Marines, finished production in early April 2022. It hasn’t been released yet. Our teams in China and India have worked tirelessly on this. It's quite challenging to get the two teams in one pipeline, one workflow, and one structure. We are always keen to produce high-quality work, so we try our best to harness the strength of each artist and that, sometimes means bringing them together on a project, in spite of their physical location. Here it becomes extremely important to manage teams and workflow in an efficient and orderly manner. The pandemic period has especially been challenging for our industry too. While office premises were locked-down as per government mandates, projects rolled on as scheduled. In order to meet deadlines without outsourcing work, resources needed careful re-allocation and teams required restructuring. Raysync: Thanks for sharing. May we know your use case in data transfer? Varun: At times we face a problem of disk space in the company . In 2020, covid issues led us to try out cloud servers. We decided to move ahead with your services for a few reasons. One of them being agility — the speedy response and the pro-activeness displayed, while solving issues was a plus point for us. We felt that we were able to save significant amount of time. The other key aspect that drove our choice was the ability to control user accounts and permissions. Raysync is TPN certified, and you have a vast number of functionalities which is always great. We have a lot of data being transferred between our teams in India and China - for this, we needed a stable service that works seamlessly in both locations. When we tried Raysync, it just worked. The software is light and has all the features we need. We needed quick, efficient solutions and you guys checked all the boxes!

In the daily work of enterprises, there are many exchanges between teams and personnel, which determines that transferring massive files has always been a difficult point in enterprise work. How to choose the appropriate file transfer software according to the company's positioning and type, I believe you are also a headache. This article will show you six of the best ways to send massive files. How to send massive files? Cloud Storage Cloud storage is a way to store data on a third-party virtual server. Users can host storage files or objects to these third-party servers, or purchase additional storage space to meet the storage needs of files of different sizes. The biggest advantage of this method is convenience and saving operating costs. Enterprises can purchase different storage packages according to the company's business and transfer file types. Enterprises do not need professional IT personnel to install and deploy decorations, which greatly reduces IT and management costs. The disadvantages of cloud storage are also more obvious. The security performance of cloud storage is not good. There is a lot of user data on the cloud storage server, which is easy to be attacked by hackers. If an enterprise stores confidential documents, there is an inevitable risk of document leakage. The transfer speed of cloud storage is subject to cloud service providers, and there are often problems with transfer lines, resulting in a high rate of file loss. File Transfer Protocols File Transfer Protocol is a set of standard protocols for file transfer on the network. For nearly half a century, FTP has been one of the most widely used transfer protocols. FTP is designed based on the client-server model, which establishes two connections between the client and the FTP server. 1. Besides FTP, there are other transfer protocols. FTPS adds Secure Sockets Layer to FTP. Unlike FTP, it encrypts commands and data, preventing passwords and sensitive information from being publicly transmitted over the network. And it is not compatible with FTP. 2. SSH File Transfer Protocol uses the Secure Shell Protocol to transfer files. Unlike FTP, it encrypts commands and data, preventing public disclosure of passwords and information. And it is not compatible with FTP. 3. In addition, there is Trivial File Transfer Protocol , which is a simplified file transfer protocol. Compress your massive files If the files to be transferred are massive and large, it is also a good choice to compress the files and send them. WinZip is the most widely used file software for Microsoft Windows operating systems. Users can create or add files to ZIP archives, decompress ZIP archives, and decompress some other formats of archives. WinZip Standard Suite cost about $29.95. WinRAR is a powerful compression software that can reduce the size of email attachments or decompress files in RAR/ZIP formats. The one-time purchase price is $29. ZipArchive is a compression software for Windows that supports over a dozen compressed file formats. It is very simple to use, and can upload the compressed file to OneDrive or Google Drive. Note: Although compression software can easily package and transfer massive files, the quality of compressed files and images will be greatly affected. Therefore, many film and television production companies usually do not choose this file transfer method. USB Flash Drive A USB flash drive is a device that uses a USB interface to connect a computer to store data and files. The advantages of USB flash disk are obvious, small size, large storage capacity, fast data reading and writing speed, and can be carried around. However, USB flash drives are not suitable for cross-border file transfers and do not have team collaboration features. Therefore, it is not the best choice for massive small file transfers. Raysync Raysync is a high-speed large file transfer solution that focuses on providing enterprises with a secure and controllable transfer solution. Traditional file transfer methods are easily affected by data size, transfer distance, and network conditions. The transfer protocol independently developed by Raysync can make full use of network bandwidth resources and increase the transfer speed by 100 times, enabling the safe and fast transfer of files to any place.
