Yet another company that is using the Amazon S3 Web Service to save money in its business... this is something that ANY small business can be doing by using Data Bucket Pro to work with Amazon S3
In 2006 SmugMug.com used Amazon S3 Web Service to save $48,490 / month... ($500K) on their business costs.
...and they expect their savings from Amazon S3 to be well over $1M in 2007, maybe as high as $2M.
So who are SmugMug.com ?
Well, they are a rapidly growing business who provide a "storage service" for customers to store their photos securely, both home users and pro's.
Here are a couple of great quotes from the CEO's blog:
"Amazon has been so reliable over the last 7 months (considerably more reliable than our own internal storage, which I consider to be quite reliable), that just last week we made S3 an even more fundamental part of our storage architecture." |
