Manage content
Manage content on NetStorage with a variety of access methods. Access methods define how you want to access a storage group. You enable or disable access methods in Akamai Control Center when editing or creating an upload account. For help setting up access methods, see configure your access method.
| Access method | Description |
|---|---|
| Aspera Upload Acceleration | This client quickly transfers content from your local system to NetStorage using Asperasoft's accelerated transfer protocol, “FASP.” |
| File Manager | File Manager is a web-based interface to the NetStorage file-system. |
| File Transfer Protocol | File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a non-secure means of transferring files between networked computers using TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). |
| NetStorage Usage API | This is a full-featured HTTP API that allows you to manage your NetStorage content. Use it to upload, view, move, and delete your content using an HTTP(S) client of your own design. |
| Rsync | The “Rsync” program is a UNIX system-based tool that allows you to copy content from a local machine to a remote machine—your system to a NetStorage storage group. |
| Secure Copy | Secure Copy (“SCP”) provides a secure means of copying files to and from NetStorage using SSH for authentication and security. |
| The Content Management Shell (CMShell) | The Content Management Shell (CMShell) allows you to log in to a shell-like interface to manage content in NetStorage, using a secure environment. |
Avoid breaking your workflow
If you use Usage API to manage your content, subsequently using other access methods is not supported. You must continue using the Usage API exclusively.
