So what I am getting from all of these posts is to use rsync for the frontend and mysql clustering for the backend... Is there any other way to get this working with a better solution other than rsync?
Thanks
Russ

How do you synchronize the MySQL? Or are you using a single remote MySQL server that all servers use.
Wikimedia uses a single master and multiple slaves in a replication environment. Our biggest wiki, the English Wikipedia, has a separate master to that of the other wikis, and a separate slave cluster, I believe.
