Abstract
Techniques for automated capacity managed in distributed computing systems are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving predicting one or more future usage levels of a computing resource in the distributed computing system based on received data representing historical usage levels of the computing resource and determining whether a currently available capacity of the computing resource in the distributed computing system is depleted beyond a threshold time period based on the one or more future usage levels. In response to determining that the currently available capacity of the computing resource in the distributed computing system is depleted before the threshold time period, the method includes immediately rebooting, reimaging, or performing other recovery actions on one or more out-for-repair hosts that provide the computing resource.
