Step $1-$ Review the following scenario:

Scenario:

You work as a data infrastructure manager for an organization that plans to deploy an online transaction processing $($OLTP$)$ application and a back$-$office application in their environment. The organization has a block$-$based storage system with SSD$,$ FC supported drives, and SATA drives. The OLTP application is mission$-$critical and will generate a large number of small$-$sized, random I$/$Os$,$ with the number of reads expected to be around $75\%.$ The back$-$office application will be deployed for non$-$production operations.

There is concern about the throughput and response time of the OLTP application. The OLTP application requires high performance with low latency. Your organizational preference is to maintain full control of the storage provisioned for this application for precise data placement on physical drives. The back$-$office application can tolerate performance variations. The capacity requirement of the back$-$office application is unpredictable and may vary.

Step $2$ After reviewing the scenario, you are to recommend a storage provisioning given the organization$$s requirements. Provide a well$-$organized and complete recommendation to address either the OLTP OR the back$-$office application storage requirements. Provide support for your recommendations.
