sFTP

Using sFTP to integrate your data with Bright Analytics

Securely managing and exchanging large datasets presents several challenges:

• Firewall and access restrictions – Ensuring secure connectivity while navigating network security policies.
• Permission and authentication complexities – Managing credentials, encryption, and data access control.
• Handling large-scale data transfers – Ensuring smooth and reliable ingestion of large files without failures or delays.

By integrating sFTP with Bright Analytics, you can:

• Securely transfer and process large datasets without relying on manual uploads.
• Automate data ingestion to ensure up-to-date analytics and reporting.
• Enable seamless integration of structured business data into existing workflows.

• Marketing performance and attribution data.
• Operational and financial reports.
• Sales, inventory, and transactional data.
• Custom business intelligence datasets.

We also provide processing and enrichment services to ensure your data is structured and ready for analysis.

How the Integration Works

1. Connection Setup: Establish a secure sFTP connection with Bright Analytics, navigating firewall and access controls.
