Abstract
An approach for optimizing storage on a local storage device. The approach receives a cloud resource budget limit and a cloud budget time interval. The approach estimates future cloud resource requests expected to arrive before the end of the cloud budget time interval. The approach calculates definitive and estimated costs of cloud resource usage types. The approach calculates a total estimated resource budget consumption. The approach determines if the total estimated resource budget consumption exceeds the cloud resource budget limit. If the approach determines the cloud resource budget limit is not exceeded, then the approach outputs a set of existing unfulfilled cloud resource requests for fulfillment. If the approach determines the cloud resource budget limit is exceeded, then the approach outputs a subset of set of existing unfulfilled cloud resource requests that do not exceed the cloud resource budget limit for fulfillment.
