Data Transfer Project (DTP)
URL: https://datatransferproject.dev/
The Data Transfer Project was formed in 2018 "to create an open-source, service-to-service data portability platform so that all individuals across the web could easily move their data between online service providers whenever they want". Project will enable a connection between any two public-facing product interfaces for importing and exporting data directly. DTP uses services existing APIs and authorization mechanisms to access data. It then uses service specific adapters to transfer that data into a common format, and then back into the new service’s API.
The contributors to the Data Transfer Project believe portability and interoperability are central to innovation. Making it easier for individuals to choose among services facilitates competition, empowers individuals to try new services and enables them to choose the offering that best suits their needs. Contributors to the project include: Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple and Twitter.
Currently the project is in the development phase with no final date of the release.

Globus Online
The Globus Online is file transfer service, that works on SaaS (Software as a Service) principle. It allows users to move data between two GridFTP servers (like two storages) or between a GridFTP server and a user’s machine (Windows, Mac or Linux). Globus Online automates the activity of managing file transfers: monitoring performance, retrying failed transfers, recovering from faults automatically whenever possible, and reporting status.
