Systems, methods, and computer programming products leveraging recurrent neural network architectures to proactively predict workload demand of container orchestration platforms. The platform continuously collects metric data from clusters of the platform and train multiple parallel neural networks with different architectures to predict future platform workload demands. At periodic intervals, the registered neural networks in consideration for controlling the scaling operations of the platform are compared against one another to identify the neural network demonstrating the highest performance and/or most accurate workload prediction strategy for scaling the orchestration platform. The selected neural network is enforced as controller for the platform to implement the workload prediction strategy. The neural network controller enforced by the platform predictively scales up or down the number of pods within nodes of the platform and/or the number of clusters providing computational resources to the platform, in anticipation of future increased or decreased end user demand.
