Abstract
According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a technique for capacity forecasting includes a host having a processor unit and a memory. Resource data associated with an environment is stored in the memory having inventory information of storage resources of the environment. A ledger module executable by a processor unit accesses policy data associated with data archival and creates an archival transaction. The ledger module targets data for the archival transaction, links at least one storage resource to the archival transaction, and forecasts a change in capacity of the linked storage resource for the archival transaction based on the policy data.
