Abstract
Techniques are provided for adaptive usage of storage resources using data source models and data source representations generated using the data source models. One method comprises obtaining sampled data generated by sampling source data from a data source; fitting a data model to the sampled data to obtain a representation of the sampled data; obtaining a classification of the sampled data into one of multiple predefined retention models; and adapting a usage of one or more storage resources that store the retained data based on the representation and the classification. The adaptive storage resource usage may comprise, for example: (i) varying a data retention model based on an age of the sampled data; (ii) evicting cache data based on the representation; (iii) moving the retained data to a different storage tier; and (iv) determining an amount of time to store the retained data.
