1. Storage Requirements
Key Considerations
- Type of Data
Structured: Data organized in relational formats, like SQL databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL).
Unstructured: Data without a predefined format, like images, videos, logs, PDFs.
Example: A CRM system stores structured customer info in a database, while support emails and voice recordings are unstructured.

- Access Frequency
Hot data: Accessed frequently. Needs low-latency storage.
Warm data: Accessed occasionally.
Cold data: Rarely accessed. Cost is more important than speed.
Example: A news app’s front page articles are hot data; older articles accessed via search are cold.
