Chronos vs Toto: Zero-Shot Forecasting Benchmark Results
The article compares two forecasting models, Chronos and Toto, using telemetry data from Prometheus and OpenSearch. It evaluates their performance in a zero-shot setting, emphasizing the importance of accurate long-horizon forecasts for capacity planning. The analysis highlights the challenges of forecasting in observability due to the variability and unpredictability of real systems.
- ▪Chronos and Toto were tested on telemetry data to assess their forecasting capabilities.
- ▪The evaluation focused on point accuracy and the quality of uncertainty in forecasts.
- ▪Prometheus memory utilization showed stable behavior, while OpenSearch CPU demonstrated high volatility and frequent outliers.
