Case Study: StoryCorps Migrates 27TB to AWS with Last Call Media

StoryCorps migrates 27TB of archive data to AWS with Last Call Media

StoryCorps, an organization dedicated to preserving and sharing human stories, faced the challenge of migrating their massive 27TB digital archive from a single-server host to a new AWS platform with no downtime. They engaged Last Call Media to manage this complex migration of their Drupal-based website and its connected services.

Last Call Media performed a thorough analysis and audit before executing the migration to a combination of Amazon EC2, S3, and Glacier. The solution was implemented with zero downtime, ensuring the archive remained accessible. The result is a robust and scalable AWS infrastructure that allows the StoryCorps platform to efficiently grow as their collection continues to expand.
