-Beginning with ONTAP 9.15.1, ONTAP provides storage efficiency and data compaction on AFF A70, AFF A90, and AFF A1K platforms. Depending on the platform, compression is performed using either the main CPU or with a dedicated offload processor. Storage efficiency is enabled automatically and requires no configuration. Storage efficiency is enabled by default on newly created thin-provisioned volumes and is applied to existing data, including volumes moved from other platforms to AFF A70, AFF A90, or AFF A1K platforms.

-Temperature-sensitive storage efficiency is not applied on AFF A70, AFF A90, and AFF A1K platforms. Compression is not based on hot or cold data on these platforms, so compression begins without waiting for data to become cold.

-Storage efficiency on AFF A70, AFF A90, and AFF A1K platforms uses sequential packing of contiguous physical blocks to further improve storage efficiency for compressed data. 
+* Compression is performed using either the main CPU or with a dedicated offload processor. 
 
-Data that's migrated to AFF A70, AFF A90, or AFF A1K platforms using volume move or SnapMirror technology is converted automatically to 32k inline compression. Storage efficiency for data migrated from an AFF A70, A90, or A1K platform to an earlier platform is transformed automatically based on the destination platform's efficiency capabilities.

+For a FAS70 or FAS90 platform, storage efficiency is enabled by default only on existing thin-provisioned volumes that had storage efficiency enabled before upgrading. You can enable storage efficiency on newly created volumes using the CLI or REST API method.

 You can realize the benefit of these technologies in your day-to-day operations with minimal effort.  For example, suppose you need to supply 5,000 users with storage for home directories, and you estimate that the maximum space needed by any user is 1 GB. You could reserve a 5 TB aggregate in advance to meet the total potential storage need.  However, you also know that home directory capacity requirements vary greatly across your organization.  Instead of reserving 5 TB of total space for your organization, you can create a 2 TB aggregate.  Then you can use thin provisioning to nominally assign 1 GB of storage to each user but allocate the storage only as needed.  You can actively monitor the aggregate over time and increase the actual physical size as necessary.

 NetApp provides the same storage efficiency features available with on-premises ONTAP in the cloud. When you migrate data from on-premises ONTAP to the cloud, the existing storage efficiency is preserved. For example, suppose you have an SQL database containing business-critical data that you want to move from an on-premises system to the cloud.  You can use data replication in BlueXP to migrate your data and, as part of the migration process, you can enable your latest on-premises policy for Snapshot copies in the cloud.
