US Patent 12010026 Managing computer network traffic based on weather conditions

A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product manage network throughput based on weather conditions. The method includes identifying a weather condition from a weather forecast. The weather condition includes a geographic area and a time period. The method also includes collecting historical data associated with the network. The historical data includes the network throughput during a past event. The method further includes determining that the weather condition will lower the network throughput below a threshold based on the network throughput during the past event. Lastly, the method includes dynamically creating software application containers on a server at a time prior to the time period of the weather condition. The software application containers are accessed by a user computing device within the geographic area.
