Some algorithms are randomized and try to prevent the over-rewarding of infrequently accessed nodes that may occur in the MTF algorithm.

Infrequently accessed files are compressed to free up disk space while leaving the frequently used files uncompressed for faster read/write access times.

The opposite of this is persistent data, which is data that is infrequently accessed and not likely to be modified.

This allows less time sensitive or infrequently accessed data to be stored on less expensive media, and eliminates the need for an administrator to manually migrate data between storage systems.

Files that are infrequently accessed are rapidly removed in most cases, whereas popular downloaded files are retained.

Two infrequently accessed routes to Della Lake are:

In order to keep costs low, Amazon Glacier is optimized for data that is infrequently accessed and for which retrieval times of several hours are suitable.

Persistent Data denotes information that is infrequently accessed and not likely to be modified.

Major portions of corporate databases are historical and infrequently accessed.

The IBM 3850 Mass Storage System was an online tape library used to hold large amounts of infrequently accessed data.
