Cloud Cleaning Services

Four services. One outcome: a lighter, cleaner cloud.

From the first forensic audit to always-on lifecycle automation, our cloud cleaning services remove digital waste securely and keep it from coming back.

01

Cloud Storage Audits

We map every bucket, volume, snapshot, and repository across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Our forensic scan quantifies redundant, orphaned, and cold data — then ranks cleanup opportunities by carbon saved and cost recovered.

  • Full multi-cloud storage inventory & classification
  • Duplicate, orphaned, and stale-backup detection
  • Carbon & cost impact scoring per dataset
  • Prioritised cleanup roadmap with quick wins first

02

Automated Data Lifecycle Rules

Once waste is identified, we encode your retention policy into automated lifecycle rules. Data ages gracefully — tiering down to cold and archive storage, expiring on schedule — with zero manual intervention.

  • Policy-as-code lifecycle rules per bucket & prefix
  • Automatic tiering: hot → warm → cold → archive
  • Scheduled expiry for temporary and log data
  • Compliance guardrails for regulated datasets

03

Secure Redundant File Deletion

Deletion is irreversible, so it must be flawless. Our zero-trust purging pipeline verifies redundancy twice, quarantines before deleting, and produces an auditable certificate for every removal.

  • Two-pass redundancy verification before any purge
  • Quarantine window with one-click restore
  • Immutable audit trail & deletion certificates
  • GDPR-aligned erasure for personal data

Enterprise Cloud Optimization

For large estates we run continuous optimization: region placement guided by grid carbon intensity, storage-class right-sizing, and quarterly eco-reports your sustainability team can publish with confidence.

  • Carbon-aware region & storage-class placement
  • Continuous deduplication on ingestion pipelines
  • Quarterly ESG-ready emission reports
  • Dedicated optimization engineering pod
