That's more of an EC2 question than it is an akka one.
AFAIR EC2 provides so called auto scaling groups, which start new instances
of an image based on load in the group.
 Simply make such apps start the akka app and join the akka cluster and
you're ready to spread out your load.

I do find Kamon pretty good, for the time being.
We'll soon introduce a new Tracing SPI, then such tools will become even
better and with less overhead.

Feel free to ping them with this feedback :-)
The app dynamics team is actively working on it as far as we know :-)

Well, all data collection tools will have such dependencies. In case of App
Dynamics / New Relic
And monitoring distributed systems itself is a full time job sometimes...
(all the infra work etc).

If you want simple monitoring tools then go for SaaS offerings. They need
the least "ops" work from your side.

I personally have monitored apps with: nagios / zabbix + ganglia / graphite
/ statsd and a recent dashboard discovery: graphana (only UI),
and a team I knew was super happy with kibana (that's for logs mostly
AFAIK) as well as home grown solutions...
And well, apps monitoring is not an easy task by itself IMO. We hope to
enable better tools soon via the upcoming Tracing SPI, but again – it will
be libraries and aggregation tools that you have to run somewhere.
