Case Study: a global electronics manufacturing services provider achieves 95% lower AWS storage costs with HGS Digital

Global Electronics Manufacturing Services Provider cuts AWS storage costs by 95% with HGS Digital

A global electronics manufacturing services provider was facing rising AWS S3 storage costs and inconsistent data retrieval times due to a lack of a unified lifecycle strategy. Multiple versions of objects accumulated indefinitely, and engineers had to manually clean up expired data. They engaged HGS Digital to implement a structured, automated approach to manage their data.

HGS Digital solved this by automating the cleanup of old object versions and implementing intelligent archiving to S3 Glacier using the boto3 SDK. They also enabled S3 Intelligent Tiering to automatically optimize storage costs. This solution from HGS Digital led to a 95% reduction in data storage expenses, saving the client $150-$200 monthly per AWS account.
