HSMR: A new storage class for cold data
Hierarchical Storage Management and Retrieval Hierarchical storage management and retrieval (HSMR) is a data storage technique that automatically moves data between different storage tiers based on its usage and age. This approach helps organizations manage their data more efficiently, reduce storage costs, and improve data accessibility. What is Hierarchical Storage Management? Hierarchical storage management is a methodology that categorizes data into different tiers based on its importance, usage, and age. The tiers are typically arranged in a hierarchical structure, with the most critical and frequently accessed data stored on the highest tier and the least critical and infrequently accessed data stored on the lowest tier....
