Heroku: How can I dynamically scale dynos based on load time?

There are random times throughout the day that my app can have pretty extreme increases in load based on various factors.

At those times, I'd like to automatically increase the number of dynos.

I'd like to base the increase on the load time. So if it's taking X amount of time for pages to load, increase dynos. Otherwise, go back down.

Anything like that exist?

  • There is a new plug and play addon that just launched for this: https://addons.heroku.com/adept-scale
