If this is a regular transfer of a file or files that are updated (not completely re-written) you may have an improvement with rsync. This would examine the files at each end and only transmit the blocks that need changing so there should be less to transfer. Of course, if the target file does not exist, it will send the whole file, so you are stuck waiting on the network as above.

If you need to encrypt the connection (i.e. it's not a private network) then search for the string encrypt in the manual page and there are some examples there.

You can improve the network speed by paying for a faster link between the two sites, but that comes down to a business cost justification. I suppose with a complex network with many hops, it might be possible to improve things if a direct link could be set up, but this is entirely down to how the network is delivered. It might be possible to set up a VPN connection from one site to another over the public internet, but there are no guarantees that it will actually be any faster.



I hope that this helps,
Robin

systemd-networkd

SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)				     systemd-networkd.service				       SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)

NAME

       systemd-networkd.service, systemd-networkd - Network manager

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-networkd.service

       /lib/systemd/systemd-networkd

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-networkd is a system service that manages networks. It detects and configures network devices as they appear, as well as creating
       virtual network devices.

       To configure low-level link settings independently of networks, see systemd.link(5).

       systemd-networkd will create network devices based on the configuration in systemd.netdev(5) files, respecting the [Match] sections in
       those files.

       systemd-networkd will manage network addresses and routes for any link for which it finds a .network file with an appropriate [Match]
       section, see systemd.network(5). For those links, it will flush existing network addresses and routes when bringing up the device. Any
       links not matched by one of the .network files will be ignored. It is also possible to explicitly tell systemd-networkd to ignore a link by
       using Unmanaged=yes option, see systemd.network(5).

       When systemd-networkd exits, it generally leaves existing network devices and configuration intact. This makes it possible to transition
       from the initrams and to restart the service without breaking connectivity. This also means that when configuration is updated and
       systemd-networkd is restarted, netdev interfaces for which configuration was removed will not be dropped, and may need to be cleaned up
       manually.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       The configuration files are read from the files located in the system network directory /lib/systemd/network, the volatile runtime network
       directory /run/systemd/network and the local administration network directory /etc/systemd/network.

       Networks are configured in .network files, see systemd.network(5), and virtual network devices are configured in .netdev files, see
       systemd.netdev(5).
