Abstract
In an embodiment, a data processing method comprises: a computer obtaining occurrence data representing one or more performance measurements collected for a network device and associated with one or more data metrics; monitoring the occurrence data; determining one or more current trends that are reflected in the occurrence data; determining one or more predicted trends for the network device; determining, based on the predicted trends, one or more future events that are predicted to occur at the network device at a future time; determining, by applying a site policy to the one or more future events, one or more preventive actions for the network device to prevent occurrence of the one or more of the future events.
