I thought that was what 'Cloud' was about?
"Cloud" is largely a new buzzword for a lot of older technologies.
In it's most extreme and fully integrated form, you can get fully automatic scaling which is what you're wanting.
More often, cloud = VPS = vmware = 1999

You can do a lot of cool things with various technologies that are now grouped into the "cloud" group, including Clonebox, which we think is super cool. You have to look beyond the buzzwords to see what you're really getting, though.
