Solution Overview

Automated Storage Tiering is a function that detects frequently accessed data by monitoring data access to the storage, and redistributes data between drives of various types according to the policy that is set.

By storing the less frequently accessed data to cost effective Nearline SAS disks with a large capacity, storage cost can be reduced. By storing the frequently accessed data to high performance SSDs, response time are reduced and performance is improved.

In addition, by automating operation, data management hours and management costs can be reduced.
