Dynamic resource distribution using periodicity-aware predictive modeling

摘要

Resource allocation techniques for distributed data storage. A set of distributed storage system historical resource usage measurements are collected and stored using distributed storage system measurement techniques. The resource usage metrics are associated with and/or derived from processing entities in the distributed storage computing system. An analysis module determines a training window time period corresponding to a portion of the collected distributed storage system historical resource usage measurements. The training window time period is determined so as to provide an earlier time boundary and a later time boundary that defines a periodically recurring portion of the distributed storage system historical resource usage measurements. A latest cycle of those periodically recurring measurements are then used to train a predictive model, which in turn is used to produce distributed storage system predicted resource usage characteristics. Resource allocation decisions are made based at least in part on predictions from the trained predictive model.
