(#9118768)
One option is a framework[1] which tries to start dependent services locally.
A stopgap solution is to use something like an Actor[2] model, which schedules actors on an ActorSystem and to clone the context/scheduler/system for each client ID. As long as your actors are fairly sane, this should be fairly lightweight. Then just shut down the actors for a given client (actorSystem.shutdown() under Akka), either after a time or by having a client send a Shutdown message (or both).
