Support for SFTP Node for on-prem AppConnect

There is no support in AppConnect on-prem (running in an OpenShift container) for the SFTP node that is found in Cloud version of AppConnect. This node is necessary when the customer requires SFTP to transfer flat files.

    RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to submit this idea for enhancement. We do have support for SFTP using the File nodes in the Toolkit development experience. These Toolkit message flows can be deployed on-premise either as part of an on-metal installation, into a VM, or in to an OpenShift container. That said, it sounds like the request here is to specifically have a node in the Designer programming model for the use case. On that assumption we are updating the status to Future Consideration ... but in the meantime, it may be worth exploring the Toolkit flow option as this would seem to provide what is needed functionally on the platform required.
