Abstract
A cloud data platform determines a set of candidate pre-provisioning times for compute resources to be provisioned from a cloud provider service to a free pool maintained by the cloud platform, the set of candidate pre-provisioning times being based on a demand of compute resources (N) and a target time. For each candidate pre-provisioning time: the cloud data platform finds similar historical periods based on historical distribution of provisioning latencies. For each historical period of the similar historical periods, the cloud data platform determines a minimum number of compute resources (M) to provision at the candidate pre-provisioning time so that at least N compute resources are ready by the target time within a specified confidence.
