Set up AWS Transfer Family

Modernize and streamline your enterprise file transfer operations with a fully managed AWS Transfer Family deployment from Business Compass LLC, an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner rated 4.9/5 by customers. Our solution helps organizations securely set up SFTP, FTPS, and FTP interfaces—along with optional AS2 support—backed entirely by Amazon S3. With no servers to maintain, you gain a scalable, resilient, and compliant file transfer platform designed for high availability and automation.

Set Up SFTP, FTPS, and FTP Using AWS Transfer Family We configure secure, cloud-native file transfer endpoints for SFTP, FTPS, and FTP, seamlessly integrating them with Amazon S3. Whether your organization needs single-tenant, multi-tenant, or partner-specific access, we implement directory mappings, virtual folders, IAM controls, security policies, and identity federation. Our deployments support SFTP (SSH-based), FTPS (TLS-based), FTP (legacy), and optional AS2 for EDI and partner integrations. Combined with Amazon S3’s durability and lifecycle management, you gain a modern, cost-optimized foundation for all file exchange workloads.

Automated Workflows and End-to-End Processing Beyond enabling SFTP, FTPS, and FTP, we build automated serverless workflows triggered when files arrive. These workflows can perform PGP decryption, file validation, schema mapping, data transformation, ETL processing, partner-specific routing, and notifications. Using AWS Lambda, Step Functions, EventBridge, and S3, your data ingestion becomes automated, reliable, and auditable.
