What are the practical limitations with auto-scaling EC2 or other cloud computing infrastructure?

I was curious if anyone had experimented with automatically scaling the web or db level in EC2 or another cloud computing infrastructure? Theoretically, this is possible, but I am curious what practical limitations may be.

Thanks!

We are also starting to look at autoscaling.

For autoscaling, we executed our own scripts for monitoring, starting and providing servers, and yes, the whole process takes about 7 minutes. We do a little predictive analysis to guess when new servers will be needed, and then just break them if they don’t. Total cost: ~ 10 cents.

In addition, Scalr looks promising as a commercial solution (did not use it).
