SUS04-BP02 Use technologies that support data access and storage patterns
Use storage that best supports how your data is accessed and stored to minimize the resources provisioned while supporting your workload. For example, Solid State Devices (SSDs) are more energy intensive than magnetic drives and should be used only for active data use cases. Use energy-efficient, archival-class storage for infrequently accessed data.
Level of risk exposed if this best practice is not established: Medium
Implementation guidance
-
Monitor your data access patterns.
-
Migrate data to the appropriate technology based on access pattern.
-
