Product Spotlight

Keeping on-prem applications connected with SSH Connectors 

In January we launched our SSH (Secure Shell) Connector, and our CTO Nic Butler explained how they work to connect with o-prem data. Essentially, the SSH connector is a ‘pipe’ used from the site to the on-prem application to retrieve and process the data through Cyclr. 

SSH Connector

For example, to connect to a remote desktop in the cloud or a remote desktop on someone else’s machine. Similar technology allows one user to control the machine as if they were sitting there. If say a colleague is having an issue with their security software there’s an application on Windows that allows them to hook into the machine, wherever they are, over a secure network that allows the user to tinker with the machine as if they were sat there. This is the idea of SSH in a nutshell. 

Key Improvements

  • Increase on-prem connectivity with cloud applications
  • Keep data secure across platforms
  • Simplify and streamline data processes
