In one embodiment, a resource allocation process determines a plurality of service levels of applications (e.g., business transactions) during a monitored period, and examines infrastructure performance data (utilization of a plurality of resources and a plurality of performance metrics) of a plurality of services in a microservices architecture in relation to each of the plurality of service levels of the applications. Accordingly, a resource capacity model can be generated for the microservices architecture based on the service dependency and the infrastructure performance data across the plurality of service levels, the resource capacity model defining a required capacity of resources to satisfy specified performance metric constraints during operation of the applications at given service levels. As such, the resource allocation process can effectuate, based on the resource capacity model, a specific capacity of resources required for a particular time of operation of the applications at a particular service level.
