Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for event prediction and preemptive remediation based on electronic feeds in a networked computing environment, comprising: accessing a set of electronic feeds; issuing a query against the set of feeds based on a set of search criteria pertaining to a possible event having a potential to adversely affect the networked computing environment; responsive to the query being issued, receiving a set of results in a computer memory medium; determining whether at least one property of the set of results meets one or more predetermined event criteria; responsive to the at least one property of the set of results meeting the one or more predetermined event criteria, identifying a set of remedial actions to be taken to address the possible event; assigning a priority to resources in the networked computing environment based on an algorithm accounting for whether each of the resources has been previously backed up, a level of activity of each of the resources, and whether each of the resources has recovery insurance; dynamically changing the assigned priorities based on a predicted time until an occurrence of the possible event; and applying the set of remedial actions to the set of resources based on the assigned priorities at a time of the occurrence of the possible event.
