I'm unaware of a tutorial but this is a known use case for Heat. Start here for auto-scaling within Openstack: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Heat/Plugins https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Heat/Providers
Re further design considerations and guidance, I wrote a series of articles on cloudbursting for an InformationWeek sister site some time ago which I've since transferred to our company website. Take a look for additional info on the subject: http://www.aqorn.com/?s=cloudbursting To interact with external services, you need to write a plugin that enables Heat to orchestrate auto-scaling with external services (AWS CloudFormation for instance). This isn't an out of the box thing however so there will be some trial/error going on. Softlayer and Rackspace use Openstack I believe so those will simply require some knowledge of their respective environment requirements. You'll likely have trouble interacting with Azure, so be forewarned. Save it for later/last.
