these tests use the cloud storage and not the cloud to run the middlemanagers

   I would agree that this would be incredibly hard with the current 
integration testing framework; without an external zookeeper that both the 
integration test docker container druid cluster and the provisioned in cloud 
autoscaled workers could both talk to and discover each other (or some way to 
make the docker zookeeper to talk directly to the external provisioned 
instances), nothing will work. I'm not even sure how we would go about making 
this happen, but in the future could perhaps become possible as we add 
alternative discovery mechanisms beyond zookeeper, if any would be suitable for 
this scenario. As such, I don't think it needs to be a blocker for this PR.
