OpenSSH SFTP server
Secure File Transfer Program.
Developed outside the platforms our data source measures, so there is no activity history to score. This says nothing about the project — many unrated projects are actively maintained.

Is OpenSSH SFTP server actively maintained?
We cannot measure this one. OpenSSH SFTP server is developed outside the platforms our data source collects activity from, and its repository lives at cvsweb.openbsd.org — so there is no commit history or release cadence here to score.
Read that as missing data, not as a warning. Several of the best-maintained projects in this catalogue are unrated for exactly this reason. To judge it, open the repository and look at the date of the most recent commit yourself.
What OpenSSH SFTP server actually does
OpenSSH SFTP server provides secure file transfer capabilities over a network. It enables you to copy and manage files remotely using cryptographic protocols. It operates within the standard secure shell architecture.
Best fit: It is a suitable choice if you already manage OpenSSH access on your infrastructure and require standard encrypted file transfers without installing extra daemons.
Worth knowing: Configuration options can be verbose and tightly coupled to the wider SSH daemon, which may introduce complexity if you only want restricted file transfer access.
Deployment notes
As a compiled C binary packaged typically as a deb, it generally requires persistent storage for user data and system-level configuration rather than a separate database.
