Abstract: Flexible deprovisioning of distributed storage is disclosed. For example, an orchestrator executes on a processor to measure a current storage demand factor based on a current count of service guests and a storage capacity of a plurality of storage nodes. A projected storage demand factor is calculated by (i) adjusting the current count of service guests with a timing factor resulting in a projected count, and (ii) combining the projected count with a storage class associated with the service guests. The orchestrator determines that the projected storage demand factor is lower than the current storage demand factor, and in response requests termination of a first storage node of the plurality of storage nodes based on the first storage node lacking an active communication session with the service guests. Cancel termination of the first storage node based on an association between the first storage node and a second storage node.
