  • Robust event prediction
    Patent number: 10838791
    Abstract: A system and method predicts events in a computer system. The system and method includes a controller that receives a crash profile. The controller generates granular information that identifies data indicative of a potential server cluster failure in an enterprise system without needing to identify an originating cause of the potential server cluster failure. The system and method trains a model by sampling portions of a profile that may include directives and data indicative of a normal operating state and a conditioned preamble operating state. The system and method provides a trained model to a prediction engine. The system and method modifies an allocation of computing resources in response to the prediction of the potential server cluster failure by the prediction engine monitoring one or more servers of a server cluster.
