Generally speaking, cloud migration involves moving from on-premises infrastructure to cloud-based services. In cloud computing environments, infrastructure and services are maintained by the cloud vendor, allowing you to focus on how best to serve your customers. However, it can also mean migrating from one cloud to another.

The common way to deal with this is to measure percentiles, and track the 90%, 99% response times for example. For example lets say you have a 99% within 2 seconds SLA, and your current 99%ile measured over one minute is 1 second. There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA.
