Claim 15:
16. A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon instructions for performing a method of predicting interruptions to use of a spare cloud resource, comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one machine, causes the machine to:
generate, in response to application of a prediction classifier on spare cloud resource data associated with the spare cloud resource, a risk score that identifies a risk of an interruption occurring within a future time period to a container scheduled to run on the spare cloud resource, wherein the risk score comprises a live interruption risk score component corresponding to a first risk of the container on the spare cloud resource being interrupted and a denied scheduling risk score component corresponding to a second risk of the container being denied to launch on the spare cloud resource;
store the risk score to a database containing a plurality of risk scores; and
recommend, to a customer associated with the container, to rebalance the container to another cloud resource in response to the risk score exceeding a threshold.
