Simulating an Edge Server

[Neeeol]

I have to coordinate event streams from multiple locations into a single
super-event. we will have two, three, as many as six sites all recording and
broadcasting video and audio streams, and we need to insure that clients at the
various sites can subscribe to any available stream.

And we can't use edge servers - they're too expensive.

I'm thinking that if each FMS notifies each other FMS that a particular stream
is available, we could use a shared object to transmit the stream server to
server, then the local users could subscribe to the local copy. In the event
of a breakdown, the client server could request an updated copy of the stream.

Am I on the right track, or am I all wet? :embarrassment;
