How to exchange QVD files between two tenants

I need to exchange data between two tenants and I was recommended to send QVD files from a "producer" to a "consumer" tenant.

1) I tried to use a server to host two Data Gateways, not sucessfully because I couldn`t install two instances of Data Gateway on same server. This is really not possible, right? 

2) The architeture where I have one server with Data Gateway configured for each tenant, using a common network drive to link then is a possible solution? 

3) Is there any other approach to this problem that avoid using of Cloud Storage (like S3 or other)?

There is a roadmap item that will provide native support for this, but I don't know how far out it is. 

In the interim the only solution i'm aware of without using cloud storage would be to use an SFTP server and our SFTP connector.

Hi @Paulo_IntelFab 

Apart from using some form of Cloud Storage, or an SFTP server (as Leigh mentions), the only other possibility I can think of is virtual machines running two instances of the Data Gateway (as you suggest in point 2). The data gateway is a really light client, so you would not have to give much resource to each VM, but each would require a Windows licence.

Good to hear that there is something on the roadmap for this, particularly with the Anonymous Access server, where you might want to keep your connections and ETL away from your presentation tenant.
