Abstract: The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for identifying trends in the behavior of execution of services in a cloud platform environment and support alert triggering for expected outages prior their occurrence. Metrics data for performance of the cloud platform is continuously obtained. Based on evaluation of the obtained metrics data, the performance of the cloud platform is tracked over time to identify a trend in a performance of a first service on the cloud platform. The identified trend in the performance is compared with a current performance rate of the first service. Based on an evaluated difference between the current performance rate and the identified trend, the difference is classified into an issue-reporting level associated with a prediction for an outage at the first service. A notification for the trend is reported.
