A real-world example

Which servers will exceed 90% CPU utilization in the next 7 days?

A single capacity-related outage costs $100K–$500K per hour in lost revenue and SLA penalties. Most teams provision based on peak historical usage plus a 30% buffer, wasting $2–5M annually in over-provisioned infrastructure. If you could predict which specific servers will breach capacity limits next week, you could auto-scale proactively — eliminating both outages and waste.

How KumoRFM solves this

Relational intelligence for every forecast

Kumo models the full infrastructure graph — servers connected to clusters, request patterns, deployment schedules, and dependent services. A traditional threshold alert fires when CPU is already at 85%. Kumo predicts which servers will breach 90% seven days from now by learning from cross-cluster traffic patterns, deployment cadences, and correlated workload spikes. Server SRV-401 may look fine today, but Kumo sees that its cluster is absorbing traffic from a scaling neighbor and a new deployment is scheduled for Thursday.
