I will try to answer this one differently. All the cloud providers have done an amazing job in separating the compute and the storage. Storage is extremely cheap and probably one of the lowest margin commodities that the cloud providers have. OfCourse with the caveat of multiple georedundant active active type of set up. So generally, for advanced analytics choice of Business KPIs and the compute to meet the latency and throughput to meet the business goals should be the first consideration. Storage and storage cost in my opinion comes way down the lane.

The answer to this question is entirely a function of your business strategy and goals, your IT strategy and architecture, your supported use cases, and your budget.
