Business Interaction Networks

By Christophe Fabre, CEO, Axway
 
If you've visited Axway.com recently, you may have noticed that we describe Axway in a whole new way.

In the past, companies focused on transactional interactions, but times have changed—we've chosen this new positioning because we've recognized an evolution in how businesses interact with each other.

  Strategic Insights


The Evolution and Essentials of Managed File Transfer
By Bernard Debauche, VP & Joe Fisher, SVP, Product & Solutions Marketing, Axway
 
FTP. It was one of those rare things that most companies never knew they wanted until they had it. Besides email, no method over the last twenty years has been used more often by B2B companies to move files and information assets among customers, suppliers and any individuals outside the organization.
 
Twenty years ago, it wasn't just an efficient means of getting information from one place to another, it was the only means, as email was still years away from the mainstream. Things changed, of course, and when email finally went mainstream, FTP became the second most popular way to move files in and out of the enterprise. But in the years since email's adoption, something unexpected happened. Read more

File Transfer Direct — The Best of Both Worlds
 
Emails with large attachments can overload an organization's email infrastructure and bring it crashing to a halt, which prompts IT departments to create size restrictions. These restrictions force a well-meaning employee to use whatever means necessary to transmit large files (e.g., mailing CDs, USB drives or DVDs via snail mail, using unsecured FTP, etc.). But when the data in those files is regulated, this well-meaning employee puts the entire organization at unthinkable financial risk. Read more
