How do I implement SFTP in my application?

To implement SFTP, you can use libraries like Paramiko for Python or JSch for Java. Which language are you using?

I'm using Python. Can you provide a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example using Paramiko:

import paramiko

client = paramiko.SSHClient()
client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
client.connect('hostname', username='user', password='passwd')

sftp = client.open_sftp()

# Upload a file
sftp.put('local_file.txt', 'remote_file.txt')

# Close the connection
sftp.close()
client.close()

What if I need to handle large files?

For large files, consider using the putfo method to upload files in chunks, or use get for downloading. This helps manage memory better.
