Technology described herein can be employed to automatically recommend a tiering policy for data storage of data at a data storage system, such as a cloud storage system. An example method can comprise determining, by a system comprising a processor, context information defining a data storage attribute applicable to data at a cloud storage system. The method can comprise, in response to determining the context information, generating, by the system, a tiering policy defining an element of tiering storage of data at the cloud storage system, wherein the tiering policy is based on the data storage attribute defined by the context information. The method also can comprise, in response to generating the tiering policy, outputting, by the system, the tiering policy to a storage device associated with a customer. The analysis can be performed using an artificial intelligence process, machine learning process or a combination thereof.
