> Note though that there are many cases on which served tile information rarely changes. It depends on what you're doing, but outdated maps can be worse than no maps. On low zoom values that probably works fine, but new buildings and streets are built everyday all over the world. |

If you need updates more often than once a week, you're going to have to take a different approach, since OSM only publish their database exports once a week. In that case you're going to have to use the OSM API to query their database for changes directly and it is only reasonable to track and manage continuous updates on a relatively small surface area.
All of this is of course ignoring the fact that there can be a time lag of anything from hours to decades between a house being built and that house being added to OSM.
