Files are streamed directly to cloud storage locations such as AWS S3, Azure Blob, and Google Cloud Storage. Data is not stored anywhere along the way or exposed to a third party.

Overview
SFTP Gateway is a secure, fast, and easy-to-use solution for transferring files via SFTP to cloud storage services such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It facilitates seamless file transfers directly to cloud storage, ensuring data protection by never storing files in transit. Administrators manage the SFTP service through an intuitive web dashboard.
The standard version is ideal for customers with smaller workloads looking to optimize on cost. This is perfect for proof of concepts, Dev or QA environments, and even Production environments up to 5 SFTP users. For larger workloads, use SFTP Gateway Professional (https://thorntech.com/aws-sftpgateway-pro-listing ) which supports up to 100 SFTP users in HA, or contact us for Enterprise deployments.
SFTP Gateway provides end-to-end data encryption and protection. It runs as a Virtual Machine image in your private cloud environment. Data is transferred directly from SFTP clients to cloud storage locations, like AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, or Google Cloud Storage, and is never touched by a third party. It supports configurable SFTP encryption algorithms during transfer. At rest, files are encrypted using cloud storage bucket policies with Platform or Customer-Managed encryption keys via services like KMS, Key Vault, etc.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
You can configure SFTP Gateway with CloudFormation, or as an Amazon Machine Image. We highly recommend using CloudFormation because it configures additional AWS resources you would otherwise need to provision manually.
To access the product after launching the CloudFormation stack, simply grab the host name from the CloudFormation Outputs tab and paste it into your browser to access the Admin web interface.
Please see our documentation for detailed instructions on launching SFTP Gateway from the AWS Marketplace.

What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the seamless integration with existing cloud infrastructure and the support for multiple cloud environments. The quick setup and support from the Thorn Technologies team make the experience smooth and hassle-free.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to offer users an option for moving their files in a web broswer, but another Thorn Technologies product, StorageLink, currently handles this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enables you to transition from an outdated, restrictive solution to a more flexible, self-managed system. Because it’s deployed in the organization’s private cloud environment, third parties don’t handle the data like with other file transfer solutions.

The most helpful part about SFTP GW is the ease of use for the technical / non technical resources. Also the customer service is outstanding and a model representation of what support should look like in todays world. This is also a very easy initial deployment.

Previous versions have required more configuration on the instances themselves but new releases have helped square that number away significantly.
