Is there an automatic horizontal scaling solution for Digital Ocean droplets?

Posted on January 6, 2015

Hi!

I’ve read through a lot of the documentation for Digital Ocean looking for a horizontal scaling solution similar to Amazon Web Services’s Auto Scaling, but couldn’t find anything. At this point, I’m looking at performance-based monitoring to trigger spinning up additional nodes in clusters via the Digital Ocean API, but am wondering if there is a built-in solution before I spend a lot of development time on this.

I’m not sure if this is relevant, but my environment will include exclusively CentOS 7 machines.

Thanks!
