    Abstract: Embodiments use a hierarchy of machine learning models to predict datacenter behavior at multiple hardware levels of a datacenter without accessing operating system generated hardware utilization information. The accuracy of higher-level models in the hierarchy of models is increased by including, as input to the higher-level models, hardware utilization predictions from lower-level models. The hierarchy of models includes: server utilization models and workload/OS prediction models that produce predictions at a server device-level of a datacenter; and also top-of-rack switch models and backbone switch models that produce predictions at higher levels of the datacenter. These models receive, as input, hardware utilization information from non-OS sources. Based on datacenter-level network utilization predictions from the hierarchy of models, the datacenter automatically configures its hardware to avoid any predicted over-utilization of hardware in the datacenter. Also, the predictions from the hierarchy of models can be used to detect anomalies of datacenter hardware behavior.
