The type of storage you choose will vary depending upon your business requirement. The table below will help you get a fair idea of the type of storage you should choose:
| Type of storage | Business requirement | Application |
|
Ultra SSD |
For Sub-millisecond latency and extremely scalable performance |
For example, can support next-generation, data-driven applications, such as SAP HANA, SQL Server, transaction-heavy workloads, complex analytical modeling, gaming, rendering, and low queue-depth database. |
|
Premium SSD |
For high-performance disk storage for production workloads |
For example, SQL Server, Oracle databases, Microsoft Dynamics, Microsoft Exchange Server, MySQL, Cassandra, MongoDB and SAP Business Suite. |
|
Standard SSD |
For cost-effective and consistent performance. |
For example, can be used to support diverse workloads, such as web servers, low-IOPS application servers, lightly-used enterprise applications, and dev/test scenarios. You can upgrade to Premium SSDs for more demanding and latency-sensitive workloads. |
| Standard HDD |
For low-cost storage and noncritical workloads that require infrequent access to your data. |
For example, can be used for backup and archiving applications. |
