Abstract
Technologies are provided for a dynamically scalable storage architecture. A workload manager can be configured to monitor compute workloads targeting network-enabled storage devices. The workload manager can identify servers to perform all or part of the compute workloads. The workload management server can configure the identified servers to establish logical connections with the network-enabled storage devices, wherein the identified servers can transmit data access commands to the network-enabled storage devices via a computer network. The identified servers can then be used to perform all or part of the compute workloads targeting the network-enabled storage devices. In at least some embodiments, the workload manager can monitor a pool of available servers, from which servers can be identified and associated with network-enabled storage devices. In a different or further embodiment, the workload management server can instantiate new virtual servers and associate the virtual servers with network-enabled storage devices.
