Sync IT is a highly reliable, scalable solutionfor fast, secure managed file transfer

Any size to any location over any type of network

4

Built on proven technology, Sync IT

provide IT Administrators:

● Control. For secure managed file transfer across all

devices and locations

● Reliability. Without any single point of failure

● Performance. Required to move data, regardless of

file size, count or destination

● Scalability. Which can dynamically grow to meet the

pace of business

● Confidence. That data is secure during transit

across LAN & WAN

Product Overview

6

ReliabilityDelivers files consistently with integrity and fast

error recovery

● Network, CPU and OS agnostic

● Clients are a single, lightweight binary: no dependencies, easy

to install and remove

● P2P and advanced uTP (Micro Transport) protocols:

○ Mitigates poor latency and congestion control issues

○ Can dynamically change transfer protocol (UDP, TCP)

to peers in real time

○ Provides extensive and fast error detection and

recovery to continue transmissions

● No single point of failure; any peer can serve data to others

● Asynchronous block level (32K or more) file transfers

○ Only incremental blocks are copied upon network

interruption/restore

Distributes CPU and network loads from

single point to all points

● Overcomes the bottlenecks of conventional

synchronization tools like rsync and FTP

● Simultaneously transfer files from different peers

● Transfer over 1Gb/s on LAN & WAN connections

● Peers can be connected to any type of network:

○ WAN, LAN, Air gap, mobile (3G/4G, LTE)

● Always finds the optimal way to deliver data

● Performance scales with bandwidth:

○ Independent of distance

○ Resilient to packet loss

7

PerformanceSpeed test results (using uTP2 engine)Tested on Mar 1, 2016, from Amsterdam to Hong Kong.

200ms Latency, 1% packet loss.

8

ScalabilityDistributed architecture is highly scalable

● Data can be replicated across multiple endpoints,

regardless of file sizes, location or distance

● Reduces load on central node by distributing it

between endpoints

● Scalable to:

○ Thousands of nodes

○ Millions of individual files

○ Large data sets

● Block level data deduplication

○ Re-transmit only missed blocks

Security

9

Cryptographic based security● Code successfully audited and reviewed by a 3rd party

security auditor

● Direct device-to-device transfers of data residing on 100%

private infrastructure

● No cloud or dependencies on 3rd party hosted storage as

an intermediary staging point between devices

● Encrypts data in transit with AES-128/256 bit encryption

● Access control configurable on a peer-by-peer basis

○ Read/write: full access

○ Read only: one-way sync

○ Encrypted nodes

● Modify permissions and ACL of folders as needed

● Can deploy behind corporate network with a private Tracker

and Relay

10

ManagementCentrally managed and controlled

● Browser-based control of each deployed instance

from a central console

○ HTTPS for server

○ SSL connections for clients

● Dashboard of reporting events:

○ Status, audits, logging

● Policy based management:

○ Scheduling, speed throttling, client

prioritizations

● Headless clients (as daemon or service)

● Pre/post sync commands (scripting)

● API’s to integrate in existing workflows

Platform Support

11

Use Case Example

12

A global workforce requires the ability to quickly and

cost-effectively replicate business material to global

branch offices or thousands of remote workstations.

Sync IT can replicate data over the WAN to facilities across

the globe, then to thousands of workstations across each

LAN. Our P2P protocol significantly reduces the replication

time across the multiple locations when new material

arrives:

● 4K block level incremental copying of files

provide immediate access on local PC’s of

updated material

● WAN optimized synchronizations occur on non-

peak hours

● Cross-platform, runs on Mac OS X, Linux and

Windows

● Policy-based events: scheduling, speed throttling,

transfer settings and more
