LAS VEGAS, NV and OTTAWA, ON, 19
April, 2007 – FileCatalyst 2.0 from Unlimi-Tech Software
Inc. offers Mac-based creative professionals in broadcasting,
post production, content, digital delivery and system integration
firms a software-based solution offering maximum throughput
for large point-to-point or multi-cast file transfer applications.
Featuring patent-pending acceleration
technology with less than 1% overhead, on-the-fly compression
and byte-level incremental transfers, FileCatalyst 2.0 for
the Mac uses software automation to overcome the file transfer
inefficiencies associated with packet loss and latency. Not
only can FileCatalyst guarantee line speed for Mac-based networks,
it can actually provide effective throughput 2–3 times
greater than line speed. This translates to speeds 50 or more
times faster than traditional transfer methods.
FileCatalyst 2.0 offers the following
features for Mac creative professionals:
- Transfer data at line speed,
immune to affects of RTT and packet loss
- No additional hardware requirements
or line upgrades
- Push and Pull files or entire
directories
- Incremental transfers of file
deltas
- On-the-fly compression
- Industry standard SSL for control
channel, and AES for data encryption
- Automatically detect line speed
with adaptive rate control
- User-based authentication with
permissions control
- Universal Plug and Play automatically
maps required UDP ports
- Cross-platform support (Mac
OSX, Linux, Solaris, Windows).
For Mac system integrators, FileCatalyst
2.0 offers four client applications that provide ultimate
customization options.
- HotFolders make large file transfers
as easy as dragging and dropping or saving a file into a
folder that is incorporated directly into existing workflow
processes
- Applets provide application
hooks that tightly integrate into J2EE, .NET, PHP or other
Web application frameworks so that users can browse for
a file and click an upload/download button in the browser
to transfer large files across global networks
- A Command Line Interface (CLI)
allows integrators to replace or complement other script-driven
file transfer mechanisms
- A Software development Kit (SDK)
gives programmers the power to build FileCatalyst 2.0 transfers
into any system
