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

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.
