Once you have a model, doing the forecast itself is surprisingly nuanced. Check out the Holt-Winters algorithm if you want to go deep! But basically every input component has predictive error-bars, and you need to be careful about summing them.

Otherwise you end up with massively useless prediction bands! We've been refining these for years. A lot of our internal alarms are based on forecasts. For example if we see the ta rate of requests is significantly below prediction, we investigate. Even if no other errors!

I didn't even know this was coming! I don't work on auto-scaling. Massively cool to see this tech go public. /end-of-thread
