high performance magnolia with anycast routing
DESCRIPTION
Anycast Routing is an industry best practice to give servers the highest possible uptime, but that's only the network part. Magnolia CMS easily manages to synchronize multiple server nodes when publishing content. That's the content part. We at MiroNet bring the content and the network together and want to talk about our experiences on "The Internet" (literally) with Magnolia and Anycast Routing.TRANSCRIPT
