Ptolemy and ortelius are, in the long run, *not* meant
to be used by
toolserver users. Those boxes are explicitly separate. You can't run a
production database when users are running all kinds of inefficient and
uncoordinated queries on it. :) For now it doesn't matter, but keep this
in mind.
Okay, then we'll (*) need to mirror the dbs (postgis & osm-db)
somehow,
so the toolserver users can use it.
Cassini is a toolserver, and managed by Wikimedia
Germany. They do
things differently than WMF, coordinate with them to see what works there.

(*) we, that are the tool authors :)
