DRHCSUS04: How do you optimize the use of AWS block and object storage to meet your sustainability goals?

Sizing and placement of block and object storage should be optimized to use the most efficient and sustainable storage services.

DRHCSUS05. How does your organization minimize the duplication of data?

Shared storage services that minimize duplication of data should be implemented whenever possible with workloads to reduce overall storage requirements and energy consumption.

Best practices

• DRHCSUS04-BP01 Consider sustainable object storage options for Local Zones

• DRHCSUS04-BP02 Use elasticity and automation to optimize storage volumes usage in AWS Local Zones

• DRHCSUS04-BP03 Consider sustainable storage options for AWS Outposts

• DRHCSUS05-BP01 Consider using supported AWS-managed file services to minimize data duplication in Local Zones

• DRHCSUS05-BP02 Consider Amazon S3 for Outposts, or deploy a self-managed shared-file sharing solution
