Demonstration: Predicting Distributions of Service Metrics
Forough Shahab, Rolf Stadler, Andreas Johnsson, Christofer Flinta · Immunotechnology · 2019
The ability to predict conditional distributions of service metrics is key to understanding end-to-end service behavior. From conditional distributions, other metrics can be derived, such as expected values and quantiles, which are essential for assessing SLA conformance. Our demonstrator predicts conditional distributions and derived metrics estimation in realtime, using infrastructure measurements. The distributions are modeled as Gaussian mixtures whose parameters are estimated using a mixture density network. The predictions are produced for a Video-on-Demand service that runs on a testbed at KTH.
