Tiger Bridge and Amazon S3 Cost Optimization

Product video
Unpredictable data growth, rising storage costs, and upfront infrastructure investments make it difficult for businesses to scale storage efficiently while maintaining data protection. Traditional storage models require overprovisioning capacity or committing to long term investments with limited flexibility. Tiger Bridge eliminates these challenges with a hybrid cloud storage solution that enables automated data tiering to Amazon S3, delivering pay as you go scalability, cost optimization, and ransomware resilience, without changing existing Windows workflows.
Tiger Bridge installs as a software layer on your existing Windows file server and immediately begins tiering data to Amazon S3 based on your policies. There is no hardware to provision, no NAS to replace, and no application changes required. Files tiered to the cloud are represented locally as stub files, allowing instant transparent recall when needed.
Benefits of using Tiger Bridge for Amazon S3:
Hybrid cloud storage: Software only deployment on existing Windows file servers; no hardware replacement or application changes needed.
Automated data tiering: Intelligently moves data between all available S3 storage classes to deliver optimal hybrid cloud storage performance and cost savings.
Immutable cloud storage and ransomware resilience: S3 Object Lock enforcement ensures your data is protected against ransomware, accidental deletion, and unauthorized modification.
Pay as you go flexibility: No long-term commitment; scale your hybrid cloud storage up or down based on actual usage.
Transparent file access: End users and applications access tiered data through the same file paths. Tiger Bridge handles recall automatically in the background.
60%+ storage cost savings: Offload capacity pressure from on premises hardware to cost efficient Amazon S3 storage tiers. Whether your business operates on physical servers or virtual instances, Tiger Bridge integrates seamlessly to create unified file systems.
Tiger Bridge runs as an unbundled solution, so you need an existing AWS storage account to get started.
Highlights
- Complete flexibility: Move data freely across different storage & computing environments. Tiger Bridge preserves native file formats and metadata when replicating data to AWS cloud. This ensures data is never locked into a certain vendor and always accessible by applications and AI services. Whether your business is planning future integrations or growth, Tiger Bridge ensures you are not tied into a single ecosystem.
- Cost-optimized data protection: Tiger Bridge supports all Amazon S3 storage classes, including S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval and S3 Glacier Deep Archive, allowing flexible, cost-effective data lifecycle management, especially in areas where large file volumes need to be kept for long periods of time.
