US 10,382,308 B2 · Predictive technique to suppress large-scale data exchange

Abstract

The systems and methods discussed herein provide for a predictive monitoring technique to suppress data exchange between the client device or devices and the monitoring device or devices. Regression-based intelligent predictions systems executed both by the client device or devices and the monitoring device or devices perform identical prediction algorithms. If the predicted metric values and the actual measured metric values on the client device are very close, then the client device may skip transmitting the measured metric values to the monitoring device; similarly, if a measured metric value is not received by the monitoring device, then the monitoring device knows that the measured metric was similar to the predicted metric on the client device, and accordingly may utilize the predicted metric on the monitoring device. Because transmission of the measured metric values may be skipped, network traffic and interface and processor utilization is significantly decreased.

Dependent claims

A method for prediction-based data exchange, comprising:

identifying, by a monitor of a device, a first measured value for a metric;
transmitting, by the device, the first measured value for the metric to a remote management device;
generating, by a local prediction service of the device, a first locally predicted value for the metric;
identifying, by the monitor, a second measured value for the metric;
determining, by the device, that a difference between the first locally predicted value and the second measured value does not exceed a first threshold;
and
responsive to the determination, skipping transmission of the second measured value, by the device to the remote management device, the remote management device executing a remote prediction service generating a first remotely predicted value for the metric of the device corresponding to the first locally predicted value.
