Contact us for a complimentary deployment plan and a private offer that could save you up to 20%. SFTP Gateway is a lightweight SFTP server designed specifically for the cloud. Files are streamed directly to cloud storage services such as AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage. Data is not stored anywhere along the way or exposed to a third party.
SFTP Gateway is a secure, scalable, 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.
SFTP Gateway supports high availability for production workloads. We recommend this for any production deployment that requires redundancy and high performance. High availability is provided by deploying multiple SFTP Gateway instances to private subnets in different availability zones. Traffic is automatically routed to each instance using a network load balancer. The High Availability deployment is automated using our deployment templates, making the process quick and easy.
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 services such as 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 such as KMS and Key Vault.
SFTP Gateway has been independently audited by a leading third-party security company. Security Audit report, Penetration Test results, and Letter of Attestation are available on request.

AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
You deploy SFTP Gateway on an EC2 instance, and the software itself carries no license charge under this free listing. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance type, billed per hour. The options span several instance families and sizes, from smaller general-purpose and burstable types to large compute-optimized and metal instances. You pick the instance that matches your processing and memory needs. Pricing scales with the instance you choose, not with user count or data volume. You pay AWS separately for the underlying EC2 compute you run.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Am I charged the software fee when I stop or pause my EC2 instance?
The software carries no license charge on this free listing. You pay only for the EC2 instance you run, billed per hour. When you stop the instance, hourly compute charges stop. You can shut down the server anytime to prevent further hourly charges. Stored data may still incur AWS storage fees separately.
Does the instance type I pick limit how many users or how much data I can transfer?
The hourly charge maps to the EC2 instance type, not to user count or data volume. You can create multiple user accounts and map them to virtual folders through the admin dashboard. Larger instances give more compute and memory for heavier transfer loads. You pick the size that fits your workload.
Do I need my own AWS account and cloud storage to run this?
Yes. You deploy the instance in your own AWS account, and files land in your own S3 bucket. The software self-configures required resources like S3 buckets, IAM roles, and security groups. You maintain control over your data and infrastructure. Compute charges appear on your AWS bill.

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.
