What's new in Resilio Active Everywhere 5.0.0

The early access version goes with the following functionality. Download page is available here.

Speed scaleout

Seamlessly organize your data across storage layers for maximum efficiency. For more information, see Speed Scaleout Cluster.

TCP Multistream

Resilio's TCP Multistream feature enhances data transfer performance by enabling multiple TCP connections within a single tunnel, particularly beneficial in high-latency or UDP-restricted networks. For more information, see TCP Multistream And Multipool.

Option not to overwrite newer files on destination Agents in Distribution job

Feature in Resilio ensures that during distribution jobs, destination agents will skip downloading files if their local versions are newer. This helps preserve recent changes on destination devices and prevents unnecessary overwrites. For more information, see Dont Overwrite Newer Files On Destination Agents In Distribution Jobs.

New high-performance hashing algorithm is available

To enable xxHash128 add transfer_job_hashing_algo=3 to Job profile before starting the job. xxHash128 generates shorter 16-byte hashes, significantly increasing hashing speed. This is especially beneficial when synchronizing pre-seeded datasets, as it reduces processing time while maintaining sufficient hash uniqueness for integrity verification.
