A system for predictively provisioning cloud resources based on human behaviors and heuristics includes a computer processor and logic executable by the computer processor. The logic is configured to implement a method. The method includes monitoring a collection of events relating to a customer application as well as monitoring an infrastructure load on resources for the customer application. A causal relationship is evaluated between an event and the infrastructure load. A predictive rule is then constructed based on the causal relationship. Resource requirements are anticipated based on the predictive rule and a provisioning of resources in a service domain is requested for the anticipated resource requirements, according to exemplary embodiments.
