Google Compute added an ELB equivalent (the "GCLB"), but it doesn't have autoscaling built-in.

To get autoscaling, you can either roll your own — Google explains how here[0] —, or use a multicloud autoscaling solution (disclaimer: I work for such a provider).

Thanks for the link. I wonder how well it works. Did you try implementing it?

Well, that's what our software does too, so I didn't really have an incentive to do so!

Now, judging from how busy the engineers are here, I'd say this is a bit harder than it seems!
