Files.com Defines the Next Evolution of SFTP and MFT as a File Orchestration Platform

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Files.com, a leading platform for secure and automated file transfer, defines a new category: file orchestration platform. This next-generation category is designed to replace traditional SFTP servers and legacy managed file transfer systems. As organizations move an increased amount of data across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, the need for secure, automated, and reliable file operations has reached a critical point.

Six Core Capabilities That Define a File Orchestration Platform

We’ve identified six core capabilities that define modern file orchestration:

1. A unified file fabric spanning cloud and on-prem storage.
2. Universal protocol support including SFTP, AS2, HTTPS, and 50+ cloud connectors.
3. Collaborative and human workflows that enable secure sharing and approvals.
4. Cloud-native architecture with elastic scaling and 99.99% uptime.
5. Global data residency across multiple worldwide regions.
6. Enterprise-grade security & trust for regulatory compliance across industries.

These six core capabilities are what modern enterprises demand in today’s cloud-integrated world for business success. Without each of these capabilities, a solution cannot truly call itself a file orchestration platform.

Pioneering the File Orchestration Platform Category

Files.com exemplifies a file orchestration platform, unifying automated file transfers, partner integrations, and human collaboration workflows into a single cloud-native system. The platform eliminates the complexity of managing multiple legacy tools by providing one orchestration layer capable of powering high-volume EDI exchanges, B2B workflows, secure document sharing, media movement, and more.

A New Standard for Modern File Movement

“File orchestration is the natural evolution of enterprise file transfer,” says Kevin Bombino, Files.com CEO. “Organizations no longer want to maintain aging servers or juggle point-to-point integrations. They need a governed, automated platform designed for the scale, speed, and compliance requirements of today’s digital supply chains. That’s what Files.com delivers.”
