Many businesses use Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) to transfer data between business units or to trading partners. With the growing adoption of cloud solutions, it makes sense to leverage the cloud to enhance deep-rooted solutions like SFTP. For instance, you can integrate your SFTP server with Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) so that files SFTP users and trading partners upload to that server are automatically forwarded to an AWS S3 bucket.

There are several possible reasons why you might want to copy files from Azure Blob Storage to AWS S3 (or vise versa). Maybe you want to migrate from one cloud to another. Maybe you subscribe to both cloud storage solutions and want to synchronize between the two. Maybe you just want to perform a backup. Whatever reason you might have, here's a solution that doesn't require a single line of code, can run fully automated, and can be used for other cloud storage and network services as well.

A lot of automated business processes out there use FTP or FTPS to upload data to a server. What if most of it is unstructured data like videos, images, and audio files, and, instead of an FTP/S server, you would like Azure Blob Storage as the final destination for all that uploaded data. That should be fairly easy if your FTP/S service is running on JSCAPE MFT Server. We'll show you how to set up MFT Server for that particular purpose in this post.

Last time, we taught you how to copy users from one JSCAPE MFT Server instance to another using the Promote feature. That's the easiest way to copy users if you have a network connection between those two MFT Server instances. But what if you don't? Well, you can use the Export and Import features instead.

In JSCAPE MFT Server version 12.1 and higher, server administrators can already take advantage of easier ways of copying user accounts from one JSCAPE MFT Server instance to another. They can now use either the Promote feature or the Export and Import features. In this quick tutorial, we'll show you how to use the former.

Files you upload to an Amazon S3 trading partner through JSCAPE MFT Server are normally stored in plaintext. If you want to encrypt those files to minimize the risk of a data breach, one way to do that is by using AES-256 Amazon S3 server-side encryption. We'll show you how to use this particular service in this post; and if you want to request a free trial, click here.

In previous posts, we taught you how to set up an Agent service and trading partner. We also taught you how to install an agent on a remote Windows host devoid of any file transfer service. Let's now put that agent to work. In this post, we're going to teach you how to configure JSCAPE MFT Server so that that remote Windows host can synchronize files with an Amazon S3 bucket.
