File Adapter - FTP or NFS to be used

Hi All,

In our interfacing scenario most of the cases we have a file as an inbound/outbound scenario. Will be of gr8 help if any of you can provide some input which protocol we'll have to use in terms of performance. We have to decide on the same.

If we are using FTP secure FTP we wont be able to do. If its NFS we'll have to mount the drive where these files are to be picked/put in.

In terms of memory and performance - max size of the file, memory usage in the system where this FTP/NFS drive is attached, etc if anyone can throw some good info/doc will be of a gr8 help.

Also whats SAP recommendation in the above case??? Cant find anything is SDN/help.sap.com

Cheers

JK
