JetStor Launches JetBridge to Help Companies Escape AWS S3 Costs

Free migration service cuts storage bills by up to 80% with no downtime or code changes

Pittsburgh, PA – June 18th, 2025 – JetStor, a leader in high-performance data storage solutions for over 30 years, today announced the launch of JetBridge, a white-glove migration service that helps organizations seamlessly repatriate data from AWS S3 to their own infrastructure, eliminating unpredictable egress fees and slashing long-term storage costs.

JetBridge is offered free of charge with any purchase or subscription to JetStor Infinite, the company’s next-generation Data Platform-as-a-Service (DPaaS), which provides enterprise-grade storage at flat, transparent pricing.

“After years working inside AWS and building FinOps tools for cloud users, I’ve seen just how much money companies are losing on storage. With JetBridge, we make it easy to take your data back - and stop paying a premium to store files you barely touch.”
said Jim Gallagher, CEO of JetStor.

An 80% Cost Reduction With No Downtime

JetStor’s internal analysis shows that storing 1PB of data in AWS S3 over three years can cost more than $1.1 million. With JetBridge and JetStor Infinite, the same capacity can be delivered for just $265,000—a savings of nearly 80%, without compromising performance or access.

Category AWS S3 JetBridge + JetStor Infinite
Storage $828,000 $180,000
Egress (10%/mo) $331,776 $0
API & Access Fees $18,000 $0
Colo & Power Included $49,500
Bandwidth Included $18,000
Migration Included* $0 (included)
Support Varies Included
Total (3 Years) $1,177,776 $265,500
*Assumes typical usage patterns.

JetBridge: S3 Migration, Simplified

JetBridge is not a software gateway or licensed tool—it’s a fully managed migration service that handles every aspect of data transfer. Organizations can maintain application compatibility using an S3-compatible endpoint, ensuring no code refactoring or operational disruption.

Key benefits include:
  • Seamless migration with zero downtime
  • Continued use of S3 APIs for existing tools
  • Predictable, flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees
  • On-prem or colo-based storage infrastructure
  • Optional FinOps consulting and top-rated support

Designed for Data-Intensive Industries

JetBridge and JetStor Infinite are especially valuable to industries where data access, retention, and cost predictability are critical—such as genomics, AI/ML, VFX, surveillance, and media production.

Organizations with 100TB or more of cold or warm data stored in S3 are ideal candidates. To evaluate fit, JetStor offers a free S3 Repatriation Review, providing a clear analysis of potential savings over a 1–5 year horizon.
