Abstract
Dynamic configuration of storage volumes based on data usage metrics is provided. Data may be initially written to a relatively low-throughput storage volume that is managed according to a usage metric. For example, a burst balance metric may be monitored and, if it falls below a threshold or reduces at a rate exceeding a threshold, the system can dynamically change to writing data to a higher-throughput data storage volume. After a period of time and/or if performance criteria are satisfied, the system can dynamically change to writing data to a lower-throughput data storage volume.
