ABSTRACT
This research explores the development of predictive analytics to optimize financial storage management in fintech applications. As user bases and data volumes grow,
managing storage efficiently without incurring excessive
costs poses a significant challenge. The methodology
involved collecting relevant data, including transaction
volumes and seasonal patterns, and employing predictive
models such as time series and machine learning. The
trained models were deployed in a live environment to
forecast storage demands and issue alerts to technical
teams. Results demonstrated improved capacity planning,
seamless performance during peak periods, and cost savings
by eliminating unnecessary storage expenditures, thereby
enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.
