4. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 What is FileCatalyst? FileCatalyst transfers files at full link speed: UDP with proprietary retransmission and congestion control Patented algorithm built from the ground up in-house Transfer rates up to 10 Gbps (with encryption) using commodity hardware Not affected by latency and speed degrades, linearly with packet loss Ability to fully leverage multi-core CPU architecture Integration with leading Cloud Storage like Amazon S3

5. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 File transfer Issues with TCP Flow control limits transmission window, causes dead air with high latency Very aggressive in response to network congestion, cannot tune in application layer Result is less than ideal performance on wireless, satellite, or long haul links Can be tuned but still not ideal for many-one, one-many TCP is a very serial process. Each packet of data must be received before a new packet is sent = Decreased transfer speed Source File Destination File Acknowledgments Data Packet

6. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 Acceleration with FileCatalyst Ideal for bulk file transfer Predictable - Can send at a perfect rate Not affected by latency or packet loss Congestion Control implemented in application layer Tunable congestion control aggression Instantly detect link capacity Source File Destination File Acknowledgments FileCatalyst completely saturates the pipe by sending multiple blocks of data = Increased transfer speed

11. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 File Transfer Options Applets Upload, download, file area Protocol detection (UDP, TCP, HTTP), retry and resume Checksum and deltas HotFolder Uploads to either a new job or file area Automation Pre and post task Folder synchronization Bandwidth Schedule Native Browser (W3C) Form upload HTTP links When Java Plugin is not detected 2GB max file size No retry and no resume Mobile Uploads into file area Job Submission into any order form iOS and Android Future Development HotFolder job downloads iOS job submission

12. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 Workflow Components Field Meta data you wish to capture during the job submission process; Input types: Text, Text Area, Drop Down (Select), Date, Quantity (Number) Workflow Modifiers (Smart fields): Recipient Email, Recipient Email CC (Notification List), Site Selector, Email list, Job Expiry, Download Password or automatically generated PIN Order Form (Main Workflow logic) Collection of fields (meta data) defined by the system admin Job Fields or per file fields Multiple order forms per user, a user can execute multiple workflows Sites Any FileCatalyst Direct Server or 3 rd party FTP(s) site Target storage location of files (media) Could be same server but different target path Or a separate geographical location Dynamic path assignment based on the form data Script execution (Command line OR URL calls) Storage of job artifacts in XML and PDF

13. © Copyright FileCatalyst, 2015 Workflow Components Group Extends default user properties Order form assignment (multiple order forms per user) Shared Folders – file area – shared media storage Shared transactions (Jobs) Permissions Job Entity that combines files (media) and order form information (meta data) Transactional information (job history log) Status Automatic status triggers. Incomplete -> Sent, Sent -> Shipped, Incomplete -> Error Coming Soon: User defined triggers based on the outcome of the script execution or status template
