Your question is overly generic to give a specific answer I'm afraid. Yes, you can very easily spread processing load by using Akka Cluster, Cluster Sharding and yes those could run Akka Streams. But the exact implementation and guidelines would depend on the exact semantics you're trying to achieve.

As documented, the graphs are locally run. We are thinking of scaling the system up by using akka cluster, and starting graphs on several nodes on demand. An actor monitors backlog on our custom Source and when it detects backlog, it sends a message to the cluster, which triggers starting another graph. Im simplifying a lot of details, of course. Has anyone tried something like this? Any inputs are appreciated!
