A method for validation and prediction of cloud readiness is described. Method includes identifying a sample of components from a cloud infrastructure, wherein an update is applied to the sample to generate a treated sample and the treated sample is of a statistically sufficient scale and a relevant cloud-level diversity and identifying a control sample of components from the cloud infrastructure, wherein the control sample is statistically comparable to the treated sample. The method also includes executing a set of workloads on the treated sample and the control sample. Further, the method includes predicting an impact of the update on a user experience based on a comparison of telemetry captured during execution of the set of workloads on the treated sample and the control sample.
