Abstract

Applying machine-learning to optimize the operational efficiency of data backup systems is described. A machine-learning system creates a training set of multiple features for each of multiple historical data backup jobs. The machine-learning system trains a prediction model to predict, based on the training set, the probabilities that the corresponding historical data backup jobs failed during the next historical data backup window. The machine-learning system creates an operational set of multiple features for each of multiple scheduled data backup jobs. The trained prediction model predicts, based on the operational set, the probabilities that the corresponding scheduled data backup jobs will fail during the next scheduled data backup window. The predicted probability that a scheduled data backup job will fail during the next scheduled data backup window is output, thereby enabling an operator to remediate the scheduled data backup job prior to the next scheduled data backup window.
