Data Expedition, Inc. (DEI) is an enterprise software company that develops, sells and supports software for the high-performance data transfer market.[1]

Technology[edit]

Data Expedition, Inc.'s core technology is called the Multipurpose Transaction Protocol (MTP/IP)[2]. It is a patented [3] [4] [5] [6] and proprietary transport protocol (OSI Layer 4). DEI claims that MTP offers superior performance and reliability when compared to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) transport protocol.[7][8]

Products[edit]

Data Expedition, Inc. sells and markets the following products[9]:

  • ExpeDat - a high-performance file transfer suite and alternative to legacy technologies such as FTP, SFTP, HTTP, and CIFS
  • SyncDat - a high-performance file replication and synchronization application, functionally similar to rsync. It rapidly compares and transfers files for backup, data migration, and mirroring.
  • HyperGate - is software that increases the speed and reliability of web based document transfers.
  • MTP SDKs - several MTP/IP interfaces are available, allowing developers to choose the programming model that best fits their needs to integrate DEI's technology.
