A small retailer wants to reduce overhead from storing daily logs while keeping them readily accessible for analysis. Some logs need to be queried often, while older records are occasionally reviewed. Which method is the BEST solution for balancing costs and retrieval speed?
Restarting cloud instances on a frequent cycle to minimize infrastructure spending
Using ephemeral volumes for storing logs to reduce storage duration
Maintaining an on-premises hard drive system for all logs to avoid recurring provider fees
Splitting the logs so newer entries remain in a quick-response location and older entries reside in a more economical option
Placing logs that are accessed more frequently in a higher-access location provides faster retrieval, and moving older records to an economical option helps lower overall expenses. Storing all logs on on-premises disks can introduce added upfront costs, while ephemeral storage loses data when resources shut down. Frequent instance restarts do not address appropriate placement of data for retrieval requirements.
