Hi rbatte1
I think the issue I have is different from what you have addressed here.
I am absolutely not concerned about how the clients in Site B access my files from Site A. They are already doing so and they will continue to do so. So there is not changed on their end.

My primary question is
Which of these two options is a faster way for me to transfer files from my Application server which is creating the files to remote Site A in the same datacenter.

Option (1) FTP files from my application server (using scp/rcp/rsync/lftp) to a remote FTPS server in site A which has a storage volume XXX mounted locally on the FTPS server at mount point /a/b/c
Option (2) Mount the FTPS storage volume XXX onto local mount point /x/y/z of my local Application server as well as mount the same storage volume XXX onto local mount point /a/b/c of the remote FTPS server and then Application server just copies the files it generates (cp) to Unix directory /x/y/z and so files are automatically available on remote FTPS server in directory /a/b/c

thanks
