Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to, among other things, managing power of one or more data storage devices. In some examples, a storage service may obtain a schedule associated with enabling different storage devices at different times. The storage service may also identify a request of a batch of requests for accessing the storage devices. In some cases, the storage service may also determine which storage device to activate based at least in part on the schedule and/or the request. Further, the storage service may manage power of a storage device based at least in part on the determination of which storage device to activate.
