Love the level of detail that Fly's articles usually go into.

We have a distributed CDN-like feature in the hosted version of our open source search engine [1] - we call it our "Search Delivery Network". It works on the same principles, with the added nuance of also needing to replicate data over high-latency networks between data centers as far apart as Sao Paulo and Mumbai for eg. Brings with it another fun set of challenges to deal with! Hoping to write about it when bandwidth allows.
