This is even more cumbersome when working on bare metal, as it is more difficult to add space when using this kind of solution with respect to the cloud. When using cloud storage like EBS or similar, it is normally easy(er) to extend volumes, which gives us the luxury to plan the space to allocate for data with a good grade of relaxation.
