Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for predicting interruptions to the use of spare cloud resources and rebalancing based on those predictions are disclosed. A computing platform collects data for customers over time. The computing platform runs a machine learning algorithm on the historical data to generate a prediction classifier. The prediction classifier relates to a time window for prediction into the future, on the order of minutes or hours. The prediction classifier is run on monitored data from ongoing activity with a cloud provider to generate a risk score. Each risk score may identify an amount of risk that a spare cloud resource related to new resource metrics data will be interrupted within the future time frame corresponding to that prediction classifier. If predicted to be interrupted, the customer may be assisted in rebalancing to other resources. As a result, interruptions can be predicted hours into the future.
