File Ingestion and Replication
Use file ingestion and replication tasks to transfer a large number of files of any file type between on-premises and cloud repositories and to track and monitor file transfers.
When you create a file ingestion and replication task, you define the source and the target endpoints for file transfer. You can configure a file ingestion and replication task to transfer multiple files in a batch to enhance performance.
You can define a schedule by which the task runs. You can also configure the task to perform actions, such as compression, decompression, encryption, or decryption of files.
