Disk Tiering

Intelligent tiering recommendations you can act on in one click

The Lucidity Cloud OS right-tiers your block storage with recommendations based on your actual IOPS and throughput that you can execute in one click

Most disks are on the wrong tier

Most Managed Disks, EBS, or Persistent Disks default to the most premium tier unnecessarily. Understanding which ones actually need that is manual, and changing tiers requires downtime, so most are never optimized.
Lucidity, your AI Cloud Storage Engineer, changes that.

Intelligent disk tiering - right the first time, every time

Lucidity continuously scores every disk's tier against how it's actually used - IOPS, throughput, latency, and cost. When a tier is suboptimal, Lucidity shows you why, recommends the move, and executes it without disruption.

Understand the state of your disk tiering efficiency

Instantly see which disks are correctly tiered and which aren't, across your entire estate.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Lucidity identifies tier-mismatched volumes and recommends the right tier, with migration executed as a planned human-in-the-loop change.

  • Disk tiering is the practice of matching each cloud volume to the storage tier that fits its actual workload — for example, Azure Premium SSD for high-IOPS databases, Standard SSD for moderate workloads, Standard HDD for archival. Most enterprises pay for higher tiers than their workloads need; Lumen's autonomous tiering recommendations close that gap.

  • Yes. Lucidity evaluates each Azure Managed Disk against its actual IOPS and throughput needs and flags volumes paying for premium performance they don't use.

  • You can review any tier change to preview its impact on cost and performance before applying it, then re-tier disks to the optimal tier in a single click with no downtime.
