Big Data Explosion
– 90% of data today file-based or unstructured
– Mix of file sizes—but larger and larger files the norm
Diversity of IP Networks—Media, Bandwidth Rates, and Conditions
– Variable bandwidth rates (slow to super-fast)
– Bandwidth rates increasing—costs decreasing
– Network media remains diverse (terrestrial, satellite, wireless)
– Conditions vary—all networks prone to degradation over distance
Global Workflows—moving Big Data over WANs
– Teams are geographically dispersed
– Over distance, network conditions degrade
– Contemporary TCP acceleration solutions not designed for big data
transfer and replication
Cloud Computing Grows Up
– More choices: SoftLayer, AWS, Microsoft Azure, OpenStack, HP Cloud
– No longer a niche – Netflix (transcoding), MTV (global video
distribution), BGI (genomic sequencing)

Challenges with TCP and alternative technologies
6
Distance degrades conditions on all networks
TCP performance degrades with distance
TCP does not scale with bandwidth
Alternative Technologies are inferior
7. © 2015 IBM Corporation
FASP™ — High-performance Data Transport
7
Maximum transfer speed
Congestion Avoidance and Policy Control
Uncompromising security and reliability
Scalable management, monitoring and control
Low Overhead
Resulting in
– Transfers up to thousands of times faster
than FTP
– Precise and predictable transfer times
– Extreme scalability (concurrency and
throughput)
8. © 2015 IBM Corporation
FASP™ – performance breakthrough
8
TCP transfer times limited by packet loss, delay (network distance) NOT BANDWIDTH
Aspera transfer times shorten linearly with bandwidth
Independent of packet loss, delay (network distance)
Cross US – Add 1% to 5% Intercontinental – Add 1% to 10% Satellite – Add 1% to 10%

Notes de l'éditeur Aspera has been maximizing the speed of the worlds biggest data transfers since 2004 and have built an impressive list of customers spanning Media and Entertainment, Government, Telecommunications and Life Sciences.
But one of the key reason's IBM is excited about this addition is the exploding number of use cases that require the movement of Big Data… and how IBM can be at the center of solving these tough challenges for customers. Think about the huge data sets in Genomic research and the breakthroughs that are waiting on that data… Think about Oil and Gas companies that need to collect and process seismic data from remote drilling sites to increase discovery and production.. In fact anywhere companies struggle to move Big Data in a timely, secure manner Aspera technology is ready to help
