Abstract
The estimated rate of work requests expected during a time period at a first block storage device, implemented at a particular server of a storage service, exceeds a provisioned rate of the first device. At a client-side component of the storage service, a different storage server is identified, at which the rate of work requests directed during the time period to a second block storage device is anticipated to be less than the provisioned rate of the second device. At least one admission control parameter of the first device is modified to enable the first storage server to accept work requests at a rate that exceeds the provisioned rate of the first device.
