Adaptive feature selection for predicting application performance degradation in edge cloud environments

Applications deployed in edge cloud environments can have stringent requirements such as high throughput and high availability. However, they may suffer from performance degradation caused by infrastructure-related faults or other underlying factors, so predicting and proactively handling application performance degradation is critical. Machine learning models can be used for this – but the performance of the models can degrade over time due to feature drift.

Feature drift means changes in the relevancy of features used for training the ML model for application performance degradation. In this paper, we predict application performance degradation in edge clouds and propose a framework for adapting to the feature drifts that may occur in this environment.
