Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. An FTP servlet is an intermediate application that resides between the FTP server and the FTP client. It works as a proxy interposed within client/server communications and helps to unload some of the computing power of the FTP server and distribute it to the FTP servlet. It also provides a firewall and proxy friendly file transfer environment by wrapping FTP traffic over HTTP. FTP traffic can be wrapped over HTTPs using a SSL certificate to provide enhanced security.FTP clients can connect to the FTP servlet through the Internet. In most cases FTP is wrapped over an application layer protocol. Most commonly used are HTTP (for easy, unencrypted transfers) or HTTPs (for encrypted transfers). The use of HTTPs requires an SSL certificate to be present at the site of the FTP servlet.
