Copy files to ESX Server faster than WinSCP
Last week I got sent an email from Vlada Baronets who represents a company called Veeam Software. This is what he said:
“I read the article at your page where you were writing about file transfer through WinSCP. I would like to let you know that we have recently released a new tool – Veeam FastSCP for VMware – that will allow you to deliver your ISO files without using WinSCP. Veeam FastSCP ensures security by using a one-time password feature and works more than 6 times faster than SCP. For instance, on my 100MB switch i spent more than 7 minutes delivering a 660-meter ISO file through WinSCP, while with FastSCP it took me only 58 seconds to deliver the same file.
The tool is free, and you can download it here: http://www.veeam.com/veeam_fast_scp.asp
If you have some questions regarding our product, feel free to contact me at any time. It’d also be great to get your feedback on FastSCP”
I’ve not had time to evaluate this software. But the claims are very interesting. I thought I might be of interest to people who read this blog…
