Hi All, We chose MFT as a code name as we carved out all file transfer use cases from core Airavata. Now MFT has evolved significantly [1] and is most notably used for large scale data transfers between NASA and ESA HLS Data [2] Transfers between Openstack and AWS and IBM clouds.
If we choose the name Custos for the security spinoff [3] [4], it is probably time to choose a name for MFT. Please keep your creative naming thoughts flowing? What would you name a more generic MFT without naming technology terms like Transfers?
