Exam CV0-003 topic 1 question 320 discussion

Explanation: When storage consumption is increasing rapidly and adding more capacity is not an option, the best approach is to optimize existing storage. ✔ Deduplication: Removes redundant data by storing only unique chunks and replacing duplicates with pointers, reducing overall storage usage. ✔ Compression: Reduces the size of stored data by encoding it more efficiently, leading to lower storage consumption.

To manage storage consumption effectively without adding capacity, the cloud solutions architect can use tiering and deduplication, as these optimize storage usage and reduce costs.
