Overview
This roadmap discussion, recorded on April 29, 2025, highlights recent and upcoming features for our enterprise data movement platform Active Everywhere (formerly Resilio Connect).
Resilio Active Everywhere is a software-only platform designed for IT, DevOps, media, and engineering teams to connect core, edge, and cloud infrastructure. It's peer-to-peer and WAN-accelerated and supports file caching, file locking, and automation. The platform runs on virtually any operating system, supports various file systems, and doesn't use proprietary formats.
The session is hosted by customer success manager Fonda Karapateas and Resilio co-founder and chief product officer Ilan Shamir.
Roadmap Highlights
Version 4.0 (Released Q2 2024)
Introduced caching functionality, which enables a global file system with primary storage (single source of truth) and cache devices that sync with primary storage. This helps reduce costs by using less storage and bandwidth while maintaining productivity.
Added distributed file locking to prevent multiple users from editing the same file simultaneously. The management console provides visibility of all locks (who holds them, which machine, which user), with sub-five-second lock propagation.
Enhanced high availability capabilities, allowing primary storage to be highly available through multiple agents configured in active-passive mode.
Scale Out (Released Q1 2025)
Enables linear scalability with no limit on top speed by allowing multiple agents to point at a single source and move data in parallel. In production deployments, speeds of up to 220 gigabits per second have been achieved. This is particularly effective when dealing with millions of small files.
Version 4.2 (Expected Release in Q2 2025)
Adds storage tiering to move data between storage tiers (e.g., from high-performance, expensive storage to cheaper archival storage like Amazon AWS Glacier). Rules can be set to automatically move files based on access patterns.
Introduces file streaming, which downloads only the needed portions of files rather than waiting for complete downloads. This is especially useful for media and engineering applications, allowing projects to open instantly without downloading all files.
Adds detailed file transfer reports that can be generated on demand or automatically via API.
Upcoming Features
End-user experience improvements are planned, including removing the macOS kernel extension requirement, giving users control over their upload/download queues, and streamlining the UI.
Reporting and analytics capabilities are expected in Q3 2025. These capabilities will consolidate all events into a single database and enable custom reports, notifications, and dashboards using the SQLite query language.
