[Cialug] multi-national web app decisions

[Matthew Nuzum]

If you were building a web app from scratch and you wanted it to be fast
world-wide, what architectural decisions would you make? Using Linux, of
course. In my case I have access to inexpensive DC space in the US and
Europe. When a user makes a preference change in EU it should be changed
everywhere, but it does not need to be instantaneous. As a matter of fact,
what I have in mind should favor perceived front-end performance. I mean I'd
prefer not to use a tool that adds 20ms of latency while data is replicated
to another location.
