Thanks for the links, they're really helpfull.

I'm interested because I need to run multiple MMBase instances using the
same cloud (i.e. db tables), so I have to think of how to synchronize
these instances, e.g. flushing caches when a change occurs.
If I understand correctly this is done automatically if multicast is
enabled. Is that true?Also, do I need "mmservers" for this, since Multicast does not 
require the
MMBase instances to know about each other?
