 # Airavata Managed File Transfers (MFT)
 
-Airavata MFT is a high-performance, multi-protocol data transfer engine developed for orchestrating data movement and operations across most of the cloud and legacy storage endpoints. Through Airavata MFT, our vision is to provide simple but highly performing tools for users to access any cloud or on-premise storage endpoint just as they access local files in their workstations. 
+Apache Airavata MFT is a high-performance, multi-protocol data transfer engine to orchestrate data movement and operations across most cloud and legacy storage endpoints. Airavata MFT provides simple but highly-performing tools to access most cloud and on-premise storages as seamlessly as they access local files in their workstations. 
 
-Airavata MFT abstracts out the complexity of each storage type and provides a unified and simple interface for users to access and move data across any endpoint seamlessly. To gain the maximum throughput between storage endpoints, Airavata MFT utilizes Agents installed between the optimum network path with additional multi-channel, parallel data paths to further optimize the transfer performance. In addition to that, MFT can utilize parallel Agents to transfer data between endpoints to g [...]
