I'm not sure this is particularly needed for Essex. We're successfully
running a bunch of discrete nova-api process across a few systems with
Essex, load balanced using nginx, and it works great. This requires a
little more work on the setup side, but it has proven stable for us.
(it also allows us to service any of our machines that service
nova-api requests without taking a user-visible hit, which is an added
plus)
