Hi,

No we are simply running using the LocalCluster class for the testing scenarios.

Config config = buildConfig(properties);
StormTopology stormTopology = buildTopology();

LocalCluster cluster = new LocalCluster();
cluster.submitTopology("test", config, stormTopology);

And it’s the starting up of this localcluster which is giving us the 
timeouts…making testing a tad difficult

Subject: Automatic scaling workers in IaaS (EC2) cloud

Hello!
  I would like to ask you if some of you have a similar  scenario like mine:
1. Start with a cluster of "n" worker nodes(virtual machines VM)
2. At some point in time, the nodes are overwhelmed due to the increasing data 
for processing (aka cloud bursting)
3. You have a monitor that detects these overload and alerts another system to 
react by starting new worker nodes (new VMs). Th cluster size will shrink to n+ 
nodes
4. After the spike goes, the cluster should goes back to its initial state of 
"n" nodes

If you have this kind of scenario, can you please tell me what involves in 
terms of configuration of the new nodes and also in terms of starting the new 
VMs (for example, start from snapshots).

I look forward for your answers and suggestions.

Thank you.

 Best regards,
 Florin
