Content Transporter

Centrally manage your accelerated, secure Content Transfers within internal and external locations

Signiant's Content Transporter software is aimed at enterprises with 5 to 15 locations that need the central management of content transfers. Content Transporter connects both internal and external partner sites to facilitate simple collaboration and content exchange. When deployed, a managed B2B content network is created with simple automated movement, ensuring all transfers are centrally managed, monitored and reported. Content Transporter is ideally suited for use during the production, capture or creation of content where multiple sites need to exchange data fast, secure and reliably with tight business deadlines.

Content Transporter Offers:

  • Accelerated Transport: Signiant Acceleration Protocol (SAP) enables the fast, reliable and secure movement of files over the WAN.

  • Centralized Network Management: Complete control over your entire network from a single view - all processes and transfers are controlled, monitored, tracked and reported.

  • Hot-folder Automation: All files transfers happen automatically through hot folder triggers based on a number of configurable conditions.

Signiant Content Distribution Management software components include:

  • Manager performs administration, control and reporting of all system activity as well as orchestrating the execution of jobs (e.g. files move, notification). Users interact with the Manager through a Web-based administration for configuring the system, setting up jobs and automated tasks, managing current system activity and reporting system activity. HA Manager Cluster (Linux Only) - a second manager may be installed on a Linux cluster to provide high availability.

  • Media Agents installed on remote computer and responsible for execution of jobs including file movement, interfacing with third party products and notifications. File movements typically happen from Media Agent to Media Agent. Can be deployed as single node or load balanced cluster.

  • Relay Agents for firewall transversal and isolation of content from external network. Content is not stored on Relay Agents - only used to route packages through firewall.

Signiant versus TCP

 

Media Mover is a standard software module that provides accelerated file movement based on some standard automated templates:

  • MediaDropBox - transfers data between a single source location and one or many destination locations. It monitors the specified location at a user-determined interval and sends any changes detected in the source location to the specified destination locations.
  • MediaAggregator retrieves files from multiple agents to a single target agent.
  • MediaDistributor allows you to schedule a simple push distribution in which files are transferred from one source agent to one or more target agents.
