Package Essentials Essential Secondary AWS Instance m5.xl m4.xl r5.2xl r4.2xl c4.4xl c4.8xl m5.4xl m4.4xl c5d.9xl c5.18xl m5.2xl m4.2xl r5.xl r4.xl High Availability i You want to use a high availability configuration to provide nondisruptive operations and fault tolerance. This configuration requires two instance types and two sets of disks, which doubles the cost; however, when used with storage tiering, the tiered data requires only one capacity tier and not two. Tier to S3 i When using Cloud Volumes ONTAP, you can tier data to an AWS S3 capacity tier to reduce storage costs. If you’re not expecting to retrieve the data often, you can reduce costs even further by choosing the Infrequent Access storage class instead of the Standard storage class. Data tiering is supported with all Cloud Volumes ONTAP licenses, except for Explore. Tier Type i When using Cloud Volumes ONTAP, you can tier data to an AWS S3 capacity tier to reduce storage costs. If you’re not expecting to retrieve the data often, you can reduce costs even further by choosing the Infrequent Access storage class instead of the Standard storage class. Data tiering is supported with all Cloud Volumes ONTAP licenses, except for Explore. Standard IA Single Zone Tiering Percentage i The percentage of data saved on Amazon EBS. For example, 80% means that your 20% data would be on Amazon EBS. If you’re not sure, you can choose from default percentages: 80% for S3 and 20% for EBS. 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% 50% 55% 60% 65% 70% 75% 80% 85% 90% 95% Target for SanpMirror i Will this Cloud Volumes ONTAP be a target for SnapMirror or SnapVault? Use Volume Clones i The percentage of data that you will clone from existing data. Advanced Amazon EBS Disk Type GP3 GP2 ST1 IO1 Provisioned IOPS Storage Efficiency i The percentage of data saved through Cloud Volumes ONTAP storage efficiency features. For example, 90% means that you only need 10% capacity of the underlying storage. If you’re not sure, you can choose from default percentages: 50% for databases, 20% for VDI and 40% for File Services. 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% Number of retained daily snapshots i How long you need to retain each ONTAP Snapshot copy. Daily change rate of the primary data i The change rate affects the size of ONTAP Snapshot copies.

Calculation: Storage cost per GiB X Underline capacity X Storage efficiency Storage Efficiency $ 0.00 Per GiB $ 0.00 - i The amount saved due to the gap between storage cost of native service in Azure, and storage cost of disks used by Cloud Volumes ONTAP. Cheaper Storage $ 0.00 Per GiB $ 0.00 - i The amount saved due to tiering of data or Snapshots to Object Storage. Calculated by the gap between cost of data written to object storage compared to it’s cost on disks. Tiering $ 0.00 Per GiB $ 0.00 - i Calculated by the gap between cost of snapshots in native cloud storage which requires one copy of the data plus incremental changes, and cost of snapshots at Cloud Volumes ONTAP where only changes of data requires additional space. Snapshot Protection $ 0.00 Per GiB $ 0.00 - i The gap between another copy of the data in cloud native storage, and the price of only changes of data.

NetApp License $ 0.00 Per GiB $ 0.00 * Region: US East , N.Virginia * TCO includes Storage, compute and license cost, it doesn’t include network costs * While the actual usage and metering for the products and services managed in BlueXP are always calculated in GiB and TiB, the terms GB/GiB and TB/TiB are used interchangeably. This is reflected in the Cloud Marketplace listings, price quotes, listing descriptions, and in other supporting documentation. ![](https://bluexp.netapp.com/hubfs/svg/svg/close.svg) ### Where should we email your report?
