Patent attributes
Features are disclosed for forecasting a usage of a block storage volume with a first configuration by a user. A computing device can forecast the usage of the block storage volume based on the historical usage of the block storage volume by the user. The computing device can determine additional potential configurations of the block storage volume. The computing device can further simulate the additional potential configurations of the block storage volume based on the forecasted usage of the block storage volume. The additional potential configurations may include a volume type, a volume size, or other volume characteristics. Based on the simulations of the additional potential configurations, the computing device may determine a recommended configuration. The computing device can dynamically modify the block storage volume based on the recommended configuration of the block storage volume.
