[All NS0-004 Questions]

A company wants to reduce their on-premises footprint by tiering cold data to a more cost-effective location. Which IMetApp ONTAP feature can be used?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

FabricPool is a NetApp ONTAP feature that enables you to tier cold data from your on-premises storage to a more cost-effective location, such as the cloud or an on-premises object store. FabricPool automatically identifies and moves inactive data blocks from the performance tier, which consists of SSDs or HDDs, to the capacity tier, which consists of object storage. FabricPool preserves the data protection, security, and efficiency features of ONTAP, while reducing the storage footprint and costs of your on-premises system.Reference=Data tiering overview,Managing data tiering for your clusters,Data Tiering and Cloud Tiering Solutions,Cloud Tiering for Intelligent Data Growth Management,Cozy with hot, tier with cold: A data growth simplicity story

Really? I didn't think FabricPool was that cost-effective.

I thought SnapVault was for backups, not tiering.

C) FabricPool is the answer, but I'd also accept "Blaira, tier my data to the cloud."

FabricPool, the answer is C. Unless you want to be the one manually moving all that cold data around.

FlexGroup sounds familiar, but I don't recall it being specifically for cold data.

I remember SnapVault is for backups, so it can't be the right answer.

I think it might be FabricPool since it deals with tiering data, but I'm not completely sure.

I've got this one! FabricPool is definitely the ONTAP feature that allows you to tier cold data to a more cost-effective location, like an object store in the cloud. I'm confident that's the right answer for this question.

I feel like I should know this, but I'm drawing a blank. Is FabricPool the one that lets you tier data to the cloud? Or is that a different feature? I'm going to have to review my study materials again before answering this one.

Okay, let me see if I can break this down. The question is asking about an ONTAP feature to tier cold data, so that rules out things like SnapVault and FlexGroup. I'm pretty sure FabricPool is the right answer, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know FabricPool has something to do with tiering data, but I'm not confident that's the right feature for this scenario. I'll have to think it through a bit more.

I think the answer is C) FabricPool. That feature allows you to tier cold data to a more cost-effective cloud tier, which sounds like what the question is asking for.
