Filtering Files Based on File Size

Synchronizing files over a slow connection or a connection where the synchronization job must be mindful of consuming excessive bandwidth can be a challenge for a network administrator. This challenge can be amplified to even greater levels when the administrator must synchronize large files on a regular basis. SureSync’s synchronization engine supports the ability to filter files based on the size of the files being processed. This functionality can be helpful in a number of different situations. Consider the following scenarios:

  • Your network consists of multiple remote offices connected by slow data lines such as DSL lines. Bandwidth is limited during the day and must be made available for end user uses as much as possible during the day. You would like to synchronize only small files during the day.
  • Your environment features a large quantity of big files. These files are changing regularly and this causes delays in the processing of small files because those small files end up stuck in the queue behind the large files. You would like to speed up processing of the small files.

Our Example

In our example environment, we have a need to synchronize a folder named SalesData between two machines. This folder contains a number of large files and a number of small files. We want to break the data up so that small files are processed before large files. We want to do this because the two offices are connected by a slow connection.

SureSync Tip - Setting Security on Group Folders

Multiple Group Folders can be used to make delegation of managing SureSync jobs easy and secure.

See the “Group Folders” and “Group Folder Security” topics in the help file for more information.Software Pursuits Connection
