WORKLOAD PREDICTION FOR NETWORK-BASED COMPUTING

Technologies are generally described for systems and methods effective to efficiently schedule a workload in a cloud computing system. In one example, calendar data is collected from respective sets of devices associated with respective sets of subscribers and a workload to be performed at a specific time or range of time is predicted based in part on an analysis of calendar data. Moreover, timing data associated with a set of predicted requests is determined based on the analysis and at least a portion of cloud computing resources that service the set of predicted requests are dynamically scheduled based on timing data.
