Claim 5:
6. A method, comprising:
monitoring access to a first object stored in a first type of data store of a cloud-based provider network to determine one or more characteristics of the first object;
generating a compression decision for the first object using a machine learning model, wherein in generating the compression decision, the machine learning model:
accepts as input the one or more determined characteristics of the first object to incorporate a prediction of future access to the first object stored in the data store of the cloud-based provider network as a basis for the compression decision; and
wherein the compression decision generated by the machine learning model includes both an indication to compress the first object and a compression algorithm to be performed on the first object;

generating a compressed version of the first object according to the indication in the compression decision to perform compression on the first object using the compression algorithm in the compression decision generated by the machine learning model; and
storing the compressed version of the first object in one data store determined from a plurality of possible data stores, wherein the plurality of possible data stores includes the first type of data store.
