Abstract
An apparatus comprises a processing device configured to determine, based on monitoring input/output (IO) operations, an IO activity level and a given IO pattern of a given storage object for a designated period of time, the given storage object being stored on a first storage tier of a storage system. The processing device is also configured to determine a write penalty associated with writing storage objects having the given IO pattern to a second storage tier of the storage system. The processing device is further configured to determine, based on the IO activity level of the given storage object and the determined write penalty, whether to move the given storage object from the first to the second storage tier and to move, responsive to an affirmative movement determination, the given storage object to the second storage tier.
