  • Patent number: 12050797
    Abstract: An object of the invention is to optimize a storage cost for data. There is provided a storage system including a storage device, a memory, and a processor configured to control input and output of data to and from the storage device. The processor monitors a storage amount that is at least one of a write amount (a total amount of data received as a write target) and a physical use amount (a total amount of data physically stored in the storage device), and a read amount (a total amount of data that is read), and calculates a fee as a storage cost that is a cost related to use of the storage device in a target period, based on a storage amount and a read amount in the target period in accordance with a monitoring result.
