AWS Transfer Family Managed File Transfer (MFT) radically simplifies how enterprises digitally interact and transact with their business partners. Leverage your MFT data using a broad array of analytics and AI/ML services on AWS, like achieving real-time visibility into the shipment data from your manufacturers, feeding a data lake for data processing and value-added redistribution to your subscribers, or creating secure transactions with highly regulated organizations like financial institutions or health care providers. AWS Transfer Family cloud-native MFT dynamically scales and easily automates business-to-business (B2B) file exchanges. Additionally, AWS Transfer Family seamlessly integrates with AWS B2B Data Interchange, enabling you to fully automate and optimize your bi-directional electronic data interchange (EDI) workflows using generative AI.
Benefits of MFT with Transfer Family
Low-code automation
Save time with low-code, managed workflows that orchestrate common file processing steps and automatically detects data anomalies or errors.
Advanced connectivity
Use a fully-managed, cloud-native file transfer service to easily share large data sets with line-of-business users, partners, and vendors.
Fine-grained authorization
Easily authenticate and authorize individual line-of-business users with fine-grained access controls that improve your operations, administration, and management (OA&M) workflows.
Advanced security and compliance
Protect your B2B file exchanges with data encryption and scanning, audit trails, and compliance certifications including FedRAMP, HIPAA eligibility, and more.

This workshop will teach you how to set up a SFTP server using AWS Transfer Family and configure your SFTP server with a custom Identity Provider. You will learn how to store entitlements in DynamoDB and use Transfer Family features to provide customized access. You will learn how to create managed workflows to automatically perform PGP decryption for uploaded files. Finally, you will learn how to set up SFTP connectors and copy files between remote SFTP servers and Amazon S3.
This workshop will teach you how to use event-driven architectures to build automated workflows for exchanging files with remote partners, and executing pre or post transfer actions to prepare files for integration with your applications downstream. You will use AWS Transfer Family to set up file transfer servers and connectors and Amazon EventBridge to listen and respond to transfer events. You will also use AWS Step Functions to define automated workflow and AWS Lambda to execute file processing.
Learn how to use AWS Transfer Family web apps with Amazon S3 Access Grants for simplified data access. This workshop demonstrates the setup of Transfer Family web apps and the integration with S3 Access Grants for streamlined permissions management. Module 5 is dedicated to implementing trusted identity propagation using AWS Identity Center with S3 Access Grants for Transfer Family web apps. You can do the integration with Azure Entra ID or Okta.
Learn how to build an intelligent data pipeline using an event-driven file transfer architecture. You'll establish a comprehensive data product within AWS Lake Formation, and the solution will process, validate, and transform incoming data. You will also learn how to analyze transferred data with traditional data science tools and generative AI in AWS.

FINRA regulates a critical part of the securities industry—brokerage firms doing business with the public in the United States. FINRA takes in up to 135 billion market events per day that are tracked, aggregated, and analyzed for the purpose of protecting investors.
As an organization, FINRA has embraced Amazon S3 as our data lake to help us eliminate storage siloes, maintain one source of data truth, and drive down our infrastructure management costs. However, managing SFTP infrastructure for over 1,000 external users doing 6 million file transfers per month was a bit of a strain. Our solution was to build our new FileX platform on AWS, and use the new AWS Transfer for SFTP service. AWS Transfer for SFTP is helping us reduce our operational burden, keeping S3 as our data lake, while maintaining critical connection to our existing authentication systems for external users—so they don’t experience any disruption as we complete our migration of SFTP services to AWS.

Liberty Mutual Insurance
Liberty Mutual Insurance is the sixth largest property and casualty insurer in the world, based on 2019 gross written premiums, and ranks 77th on the Fortune 100 list of largest corporations in the US, based on 2019 revenue.
Before migrating to the cloud, deploying an SFTP server took weeks or months to create and fully integrate with our core systems prior to sharing with our partners. While we now have many cloud-native applications, we found AWS Transfer Family capabilities, specifically AWS Transfer for SFTP, a useful and familiar means of integrating with existing and new partners to exchange financial and regulatory data from banks and other sources. Since AWS Transfer Family runs on a managed platform, AWS does most of the heavy lifting. AWS Transfer Family comes ready-to-consume, is easy to deploy, and provides countless advantages from an operational perspective.
The City of Los Angeles Information Technology Agency (ITA) supports agencies and departments across the second-largest city in the US. The ITA’s 18 divisions deliver 366 different technology services to both internal and external customers. These services include standard IT services—such as computer support, enterprise applications, and a 24x7 data center—plus digital services including a television station, 3-1-1 Call Center, and helicopter avionics system.
ScaleCapacity helped us build a serverless SFTP environment on AWS that is significantly cheaper than what we had before. This is costing us a few hundred dollars per month, while other managed solutions could easily have cost us up to $100,000 per year.
