Systems and methods are described for applying a plurality of data points of a time series data set representing values of a metric measuring performance of a cloud computing service to a machine learning model to predict a forecast of a most likely value of the metric at a selected future time. The method includes determining whether the plurality of data points of the time series data set are anomalies according to the machine learning model and the forecast and generating a collective anomaly from the anomalies when the plurality of data points is determined to be anomalies. The method further includes determining whether the collective anomaly does not meet one or more cloud computing service level objective (SLO) threshold requirements and sending an alert when the collective anomaly does not meet one or more cloud computing SLO threshold requirements.
