Interface screenshots, reconstructed deliverable extracts and workflow illustrations are labelled. All visuals use fictional content and metadata, with client branding removed. Select an image to view it full size.
The engagement
The full backup of a watchmaking and jewellery house's legacy DAM had been dropped into an S3 bucket. Before costing the migration into Bynder, three questions had to be settled: is access actually working, does the volume match what was announced, and above all, where does the usable metadata live?
We wrote the inventory and access-check scripts, then walked the entire bucket: over a million and a half objects, several terabytes, broken down by folder family and prefix. The exercise confirmed the announced volume was consistent and identified where genuinely reusable structure resided.
We delivered a formatted report (connection validation, detailed breakdown, migration watch-points), along with the reusable inventory scripts. The client could commit to the next phase on observed figures rather than declared ones.
Takeaway
A takeaway for your project
We established access, observed volumes and metadata locations so the migration could be scoped using verified evidence.

Your next step
Need to migrate a DAM backup from S3?
Describe the available export, its location and the target platform. We can check access, inventory the content and locate useful metadata before scoping the migration.
