The other day was talking to someone who uses FUSE, and although I had heard of it I've never actually utilized it. Got me thinking what the major differences are between common transfer methods, and one would be better than the other in certain scenarios.
Anyone care to give me a basic description highlighting the major differences between transfer methods such as SCP, FTP, FUSE, rsync, etc and when one would be better than another in certain situations?
Myself, I utilize rsync to transfer data between servers as it's what I am familiar with, and FTP/SFTP if I'm moving data from my desktop to a remote server, but then again I'm always welcome to learning something new and perhaps there is a better way to do things.
