Abstract

A data object is received at a storage compute device in response to a request from a host. A requirement of the data object is determined based on a computation to be performed on the data object. The requirement related to at least speed and capacity of media used to store the data object. A tier is selected from the storage compute device based on speed and capacity characteristics of the selected tier corresponding to the requirement of the data object. The data object is stored in the selected tier.
