"As a new company, we were keen to avoid this challenge by adopting a cloud-first approach. We wanted an MFT solution that we could deploy in the cloud — enabling us to focus on developing value-added services for the business rather than IT management and maintenance tasks." Selecting the market-leading platform After a thorough review of several leading vendors, the company selected Axway Managed File Transfer with the Axway Managed Cloud Service. The new Managed Cloud for MFT offering enables the company to deliver high availability for critical B2B transactions without provisioning and managing its own infrastructure. "One of the major reasons that Axway stood out from the crowd during the selection process was their clear leadership in the MFT and API space," comments the spokesperson. "Using Managed Cloud for MFT, we can support a comprehensive range of industry protocols and integration use cases without the need for additional third-party tools." He continues, "Another aspect of the Axway platform that appealed to us was its flexibility, which was quite unique among MFT vendors at the time. Managed Cloud for MFT offers a full range of deployment options, including public- and hybrid-cloud architectures." Enabling high security Working in concert with a team of consultants from Axway, the insurer deployed and configured its new MFT platform. Today, Managed Cloud for MFT supports practically all file transfer requirements in the business, including mission-critical integrations between the company's core SAP business systems, line-of-business applications, and external stakeholders. "One of the biggest advantages we see in the Axway platform is its flexibility and security," says the spokesperson. "For example, we've configured Managed Cloud for MFT to ensure that all traffic from external organizations is routed through our own internal network. As a result, we can manage and monitor MFT traffic in our own network layer and apply robust information security and data governance policies to help keep sensitive data protected." Scaling effortlessly After two years of success with Managed Cloud for MFT, the insurer is more confident than ever that the platform will support its long-term requirements. "Our team is now the first point of call for anyone in the business who wants to set up a new file transfer, and we've yet to encounter a use case we can't support with Managed Cloud for MFT," the spokesperson comments.
