Real-time resource prediction engine for cloud management

Predicting resource requirements for cloud services is critical for dimensioning, anomaly detection and service assurance. We demonstrate a system for real-time estimation of the needed amount of infrastructure resources, such as CPU and memory, for a given service. Statistical learning methods on server statistics and load parameters of the service are used for learning a resource prediction model. The model can be used as a guideline for service deployment and for real-time identification of resource bottlenecks.
