Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for forecasting event volumes. One of the methods includes receiving activity data associated with events that occur in a computer network, transforming the received activity data into processed activity data, determining, for each of a series of distinct time periods, whether the distinct time period is associated with an anomalous level of event activity, and flagging the processed activity data with a designation of whether each of the series of distinct time periods is associated with the anomalous level of event activity. Based on the flagged activity data, prediction data is generated and provided that predicts a volume of events for a given future time period and a likelihood that the volume of events for the given future time period will be anomalous.
