Is it possible / wise to access a Camlistore storage in GCS from more
than one machine? For example, if I have a Linode server which as my
externally visible, always-up IP address running camilstored and using
GCS as its store, and I also have a local camilstored running on my
laptop, is it possible to read (or write) to GCS from my laptop
without going through the Linode server?
I assume one of the issues, possibly for reading, but definitely for
writing, is where the index and other metadata would be written, since
that needs to be stored in some kind of sqllite or mysql database,
right?
What if I used a mysql database for the metadata running on the Linode
server --- could I access it either from my laptop's camilstored, as
well as from a camilstored running on the Linode server? (Which I
would use when upload pictures from my Android phone, presumably.)
Thanks,
