There is an Ant task for FTP:  https://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/ftp.html
We used to use it, but it doesn't include support FTP/SSL/TLS, and it
doesn't support running z/OS commands like ssh.

If you have IBM OpenSSH + Co:Z SFTP (both free on z/OS), you can:

- support secure transfers (we keep our ssh private user keys in our
desktop password safe)
- run remote z/OS commands via ssh (like make)
- submit JCL, wait for jobs to run, retrieve output (via Co:Z SFTP)
  (you can also use other Ant tasks to parse downloaded JES* spool files
and check return codes)
