Abstract
Various examples are disclosed for forecasting resource usage and computing capacity utilizing an exponential decay. In some examples, a computing environment can obtain usage measurements from a data stream over a time interval, where the usage measurements describe utilization of computing resource. The computing environment can generate a weight function for individual ones of the usage measurements, where the weight function exponentially decays the usage measurements based on a respective time period at which the usage measurements were obtained. The computing environment can forecast a future capacity of the computing resources based on the usage measurements and the weight function assigned to the individual ones of the usage measurements. The computing environment can further upgrade a forecast engine to use the exponential decay without resetting the forecast engine or its memory.
