Abstract

The use of cloud computing resources with static allocation configurations leads to resource wastage when workloads fluctuate. This research aims to analyze the performance of the long short-term memory (LSTM) model by identifying optimal parameters based on pod history data in a dynamically fluctuating Red Hat OpenShift Kubernetes cluster environment. The research process included observation of the Kubernetes environment, data collection, data preparation, modeling, testing, and finalizing the LSTM model with optimal parameters using real cluster data. Data collection was conducted in repeated 4-week cycles and validated using the mean squared error (MSE) method to ensure reliable results that could support efficiency recommendations. Experimental tests with parameters such as epochs, training data rate, and the number of hidden layers yielded a stable MSE loss value of 0.000115. These results demonstrate that the proposed LSTM model can be effectively implemented with the identified parameters.
