Abstract: Embodiments monitor application performance metrics representing the performance of a software application executed by one or more host computing devices. Based on the application of rules to the application performance metrics, an elasticity action, such as a power-on action, a power-off action, a deploy action, and/or a destroy action, is determined. The elasticity action is transmitted to one or more target hosts, which perform the elasticity action. The target host may be selected based on host performance metrics. Further, a load balancing service may accommodate the addition of a new software application instance to a cluster and/or the removal of an existing software application instance from the cluster.
