Case Study: Amplify achieves major egress cost savings with Backblaze B2

Amplify saves 70% on egress fees with Backblaze

Amplify, a data processing platform, faced a challenge with rigid data workflows and prohibitively high AWS egress fees that were consuming its startup resources and hindering customer format preferences. The company needed a more affordable object storage solution that integrated with its existing Snowflake data transformation hub.

Amplify implemented Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage as its solution. The migration was completed in just two weeks with no downtime, leveraging Backblaze's S3-compatible API and Terraform provider to minimize code changes. The result was an immediate 70% savings on egress costs, thanks to Backblaze's policy of free egress for up to three times the data stored. This eliminated a major financial burden and allowed Amplify to avoid passing costs onto its customers.
