Introduction

Excerpt

JADE uses the VFS (a Virtual File System (VFS) Interface as an interface to access and transfer files from source systems to and target systems.

  • The VFS works as a layer that encapsulates details of individual file transfer protocols such as FTP, SFTP etc..
  • The VFS brings a major shift in perspective: file transfers are not effected from a local
and remote directories
  • host to a remote host or vice versa, instead transfers are a effected as copy or move operations between any VFS source system and any target system.
  • The VFS allows to use any combination of source system and target system for file tansfers.
 

The protocols that can be used arewith VFS are:

  • FTP, SFTP, FTPS

...

  • HTTP/

...

  • HTTPS
