Abstract

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for objective-based compression level change is provided. The present invention may include storing a volume in a storage device, wherein the stored volume is compressed using an initial compression level. The present invention may also include checking a last access time of the stored volume in the storage device at a regular interval. The present invention may further include, in response to determining, based on the checked last access time, that the stored volume is not accessed at the regular interval, recompressing the stored volume in the storage device using a higher compression level, wherein the higher compression level includes a higher compression ratio than a compression ratio associated with the initial compression level.
