Upload files from on-prem into Cloud environments

Legacy machines often generate valuable data as files on internal SFTP servers, and Crosser makes it simple to pipe that data into the cloud. A flow can retrieve the files on a schedule and pass them to the Node Persistent Storage node, which provides a safe local buffer to handle intermittent connectivity. From there, an Azure Blob (or any cloud storage) output node uploads the files into the appropriate container and folder structure. The result is a compact, reliable pipeline that elevates critical machine data into modern cloud analytics with minimal effort.

Tip: If you set up the Node in a DMZ, it could connect southbound to the SFTP Server, and northbound to your cloud environment.
