Calls received by a data center that are associated with a request are monitored. Features are subsequently extracted from the monitored calls so that a machine learning model may use such features to determine that the request will cause the data center to malfunction. The machine learning model can be trained using data derived from a transaction log for the data center. At least one correction action to prevent the data center from malfunctioning can then be initiated in response to such determination. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Systems and methods for analyzing and optimizing conference experiences

Disclosed is a system for analyzing and optimizing conference experiences. The system may identify parameters associated with a conference between a set of User Equipment (“UEs”) used by different conference participants to access the conference. The system may compare the identified parameters to sets of parameters associated with a classification model. The system may identify, based on the comparing and the model output, a particular classification for the conference, and may calculate an impact of each conference parameter on the particular classification based on a particular parameter combination included in the model for the particular classification. The system may determine that a subset of the conference parameters has a larger impact on the particular classification than other conference parameters, may select one or more actions that are associated with the particular classification and the subset of parameters, and may perform the one or more actions.
