Stratos has this capability. *Additionally, Elastic Load Balancing offers integration with Auto Scaling to ensure that you have back-end capacity to meet varying levels of traffic levels without requiring manual intervention. * Here it says "*Elastic Load Balancing offers integration with Auto Scaling" .* Means, Autoscaling is a separate task, but with integration with Autoscaling, it ensures the back-end capability to meet varying level of traffic.
