Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to, among other things, managing space allocation of one or more data storage devices. In some examples, a storage service may identify at least one computer-readable storage device. The computer-readable storage device may, in some examples, have availability level that corresponds to a size of data to be stored. The storage service may also identify a target storage device based at least in part on a capacity of a subset of the storage devices. In some cases, this may be performed for one or more of the devices of the subset. Further, the storage service may store the data in the identified target storage device.
