Cosa (chi) è File Service Protocol - definizione
UDP-BASED REPLACEMENT FOR THE FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL, DESIGNED FOR ANONYMOUS ACCESS WITH LOWER HARDWARE AND NETWORK REQUIREMENTS THAN FTP
FSP protocol
File Service Protocol
<protocol> (FSP) A protocol, similar to FTP, for copying
files between computers. It's designed for {anonymous
archives}, and has protection against server and network
overloading. It doesn't use connections so it can survive
interruptions in service.
Until 1993-08-12, FSP didn't stand for anything. Wen-King
was responsible for the initials and Michael Grubb
<mg@ac.duke.edu> for their eventual expansion. Other
suggestions were "File Slurping Protocol", "Flaky Stream
Protocol" and "FTP's Sexier Partner".

File Service Protocol
File Service Protocol (FSP) is a UDP-based replacement for the File Transfer Protocol, designed for anonymous access with lower hardware and network requirements than FTP. In particular, because it uses UDP, it avoids the problems that many FTP servers have had with requiring a separate process for each client, and because it is built to use an unreliable protocol, it can more easily handle resuming a transfer after a network failure.
SSH File Transfer Protocol
NETWORK PROTOCOL THAT PROVIDES FILE ACCESS, FILE TRANSFER, AND FILE MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONALITIES OVER ANY RELIABLE DATA STREAM, DESIGNED AS AN EXTENSION OF SSH 2.0
Sftp://; Sftp:; SSHFTP; SSH file transfer protocol
<networking> (SFTP) A version of File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) using an encrypted network connection provided by
Secure Shell (SSH), usually SSH 2.
The SFTP protocol allows for a range of operations on remote
files, making it more like a remote file system protocol.
SFTP clients can resume interrupted transfers, get directory
listings and remove remote files. SFTP has largely replaced
Secure Copy (SCP).
