Abstract
Techniques are described for performing data storage optimization. A first I/O workload for a first data portion of a first snapshot of a first logical device is tracked. First processing is performed by a data storage optimizer to determine a set of one or more data movement optimizations. The first processing uses the first I/O workload for the first snapshot. The set of one or more data movement optimizations include a first data movement that is any of a promotion to move data included in the first data portion from a first storage tier to a higher performance storage tier and a demotion to move data included in the first data portion from the first storage tier to a lower performance storage tier. The first data movement is performed.
