The cloudhero CLI can be a very good option for this. https://cloudhero.io/cli/ (pip install hero)

It would allow you to add nodes with the packages that you need extremely easy. In one or two hours a cron could be made that adds and removes nodes as needed.

It is not a magic bullet solution but it fixes 80% of the problem with 20% of the effort.

I've used their API to deploy a scalable docker cluster.

Basically, my docker cluster starts from 3 nodes and as the cluster gets filled with containers I automatically add new nodes on Digital Ocean to increase the cluster capacity.

Our team worked a day to make it happen but we got excellent support from the team.
