US 2021/0344743 A1 · FILE TRANSMISSION METHOD AND SYSTEM PERFORMING THE SAME

Abstract

Provided a is method for managing file transmission. A file transmission method includes receiving, by a file transmission system, a request for transmitting a file to a reception side from a transmission side, setting transmission paths for transmitting the file via data centers present between the transmission side and the reception side, determining a splitting reference used for splitting the file into a plurality of fragments for the respective transmission paths, and individually transmitting the file fragments split according to the splitting reference along the transmission paths. Since files are split into a plurality of fragments and the fragments are simultaneously transmitted to several networks in a distributed manner, security may be strengthened and a bandwidth may be temporarily expanded, remarkably enhancing a transfer rate.

Dependent claims

A file transmission method comprising:

receiving a request for transmitting a file to a reception side from a transmission side;
receiving a selection of transmission path through a user interface providing a transmission cost information;
merging the plurality of files into a single file;
setting transmission paths for transmitting the single file via data centers present between the transmission side and the reception side according to the selection of transmission path;
determining a splitting reference used for splitting the single file into a plurality of file fragments for the respective transmission paths;
and
individually transmitting the plurality of file fragments split according to the splitting reference along the transmission paths,
wherein each of the plurality of file fragments is split into a plurality of file sessions according to each transmission section of the transmission path to match an arrival timing, and the plurality of split file sessions are transmitted along the transmission path.
