Abstract
In a cloud computing environment there are two types of cost associated with the auto-scaling systems: resource cost and Service Level Agreement (SLA) violation cost. The goal of an auto-scaling system is to find a balance between these costs and minimize the total auto-scaling cost. However, the existing auto-scaling systems neglect the cloud client’s cost preferences in minimizing the total auto-scaling cost. This paper presents a cost-driven decision maker which considers the cloud client’s cost preferences and uses the genetic algorithm to configure a rule-based system to minimize the total auto-scaling cost. The proposed cost-driven decision maker together with a prediction suite makes a predictive auto-scaling system which is up to 25% more accurate than the Amazon auto-scaling system. The proposed auto-scaling system is scoped to the business tier of the cloud services. Furthermore, a simulation package is built to simulate the effect of VM boot-up time, Smart Kill, and configuration parameters on the cost factors of a rule-based decision maker.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
