Abstract

Communication Industry vastly depends on servers and the Internet connectivity. If a server fails, finding the root cause of failure takes time and becomes expensive. In the last decade, Server Failure Prediction (SFP) has gained a lot of popularity and thus now has become one of the most vibrant field of research. The industry faces sever failures even after adopting various techniques to improve connectivity. In this paper, we have deep dived into various possibilities of server failure using different advanced statistical and machine learning models. This helped us in detection of the root cause of a failure in real time and predict the possibility of a failure/crash well before it happens.
