I suppose so but in that case why do any in-house development? If you're 
paying for outsourcing your development then they should be able to 
scale your apps as much as you need anyway assuming your willing to pay 
for it. For the most part all you need to do is setup the servers you 
want in the standard way, setup load balancing however your techs like 
to implement it, and setup your caches, webservers, databases, etc as 
normal. Nothing about it is something a reasonably well trained system 
admin couldn't do with ease. The only step the average admin might have 
to put much work into is learning how load balancing is implemented.
