Aspera, Inc. is a privately held, profitable, and rapidly growing technology development company based in Berkeley, California. Market-launched in 2004, Aspera's software products solve the fundamental problems of transferring bulk data (files, directories of files, and generally any large data sets) over the Internet and private IP networks. Aspera's patent-pending FASP transport technology eliminates the bottlenecks of conventional file transfer technologies and dramatically speeds file transfers, even over inherently unreliable international, satellite, and wireless links. The transfer speed adapts to use the available bandwidth and protect other traffic in automatic mode, while allowing the user to pre-set and change on-the-fly individual transfer rates and finish times. Aspera's software is deployed on six continents by major Hollywood studios, broadcasters, software and game publishers, government agencies and Fortune 500 companies.
