Claim Text:
1. A system comprising: a processor, configured to execute a first local distribution module; a computer memory configured to store the first local distribution module; and the first local distribution module in communication with a first server having a first level of computational resource availability, the first local distribution module further comprising: a first event identification module, configured to: search a received information stream for a keyword related to adverse weather conditions; identify, based on the keyword being present within the received information stream, at least one geographic region predicted to experience an adverse weather event; and a first predictive scaling engine, configured to: identify a first amount of computational resources that will be requested from the first server based on the identified at least one geographic region predicted to experience an adverse weather event; identify a second server in communication with the first local distribution module having a second level of computational resource availability; and distribute to the second server, a first amount of computational tasks in excess of the first level of computational resource availability associated with the first server, for execution by the second server, wherein the first local distribution module further comprises a local hardware lookup table storing the first level of computational resource availability associated with the first server and the second level of computational resource availability associated with the second server.
