Centralized deployment (hub-and-spoke architecture)

In the hub-and-spoke architecture, all data transfers are routed through a central Hub or Gateway (GW). The central hub acts as a mediator that manages, controls, and audits the flows among multiple endpoints. This architecture is suitable for environments that need full visibility over data transfers, centralized security enforcement, and workflow control.

• Hub/GW as Central Controller: the Hub/GW is responsible for routing all dataflows between different agents. It can apply data transformation, security checks, and policy-based workflows before delivering the data to the destination. This centralization helps ensure that transfers are compliant with security policies, with detailed monitoring and reporting.

• Advanced Workflow Management: with a centralized approach, organizations have greater control over complex workflows, including conditional routing, multi-step file processing, and secure auditing. All transactions are visible from the central Hub, providing a consolidated view of enterprise-wide data movement.
