This configuration requires two VM and two sets of disks, which doubles the cost. Deployment Model Single Zone Multiple Zones Tier to Azure Blob i When using Cloud Volumes ONTAP, you can tier data to an Azure Blob 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 Cool access tier instead of the Hot access tier. 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 Azure Blob 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 Cool access tier instead of the Hot access tier. Data tiering is supported with all Cloud Volumes ONTAP licenses, except for Explore. Hot Cool Tiering Percentage i The percentage of data saved on Azure Blob. For example, 80% means that your 20% data would be on Azure LRS. If you’re not sure, you can choose from default percentages: 80% for Blob and 20% for LRS. 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 Azure Disk Type Standard SSD Premium SSD 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. Expected monthly I/O read transactions (x 10k ops) i Enter the expected number of I/O read operations per month which each unit represents 10k ops Expected monthly I/O Write/Other transactions (x 10k ops) i Enter the expected number I/O Write/Other operations per month which each unit represents 10k ops [Start Free Trial](https://cloudmanager.netapp.com/) Talk to a Specialist ![close](https://bluexp.netapp.com/hubfs/svg/svg/close.svg) ### Submit the form to talk a specialist Thank you.

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.
