Cloud-based Enterprise large file transfer platforms: Signiant paves its way with Media Shuttle and Signiant SkyDrop.

The competition within this vertical is more and more aggressive with some major actors (excluding Japan and China) like Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.

This reality is fed and powered by the flexibility, scalability, and agility provided by the cloud computing technologies and architectures.

Connectikpeople.co, soon #Retinknow salutes the new commitment of Signiant, via Media Shuttle (sending and sharing large files) and Signiant SkyDrop(movement of large files into and out of cloud storage). 

This company works to transform the way enterprises: move, manage and store large, high-value digital assets: separate the software that controls file transfers (the control plane) from the software that performs file transfers (the data plane). 

Connectikpeople.co, soon #Retinknow  can observe that the objective is to separate tasks that are best done in hardware (such as fast packet switching) from tasks that are better done in software (like routing control and quality of service management), and create a well-defined interface between the two. 

The approach is encouraging as it focuses on: user experience; control; costs-effectiveness and independence.
