Tomas, I appreciate the feedback, pretty much in line with what I wanted to know. Effort and time, not much. The idea in my mind was basically something like 1. or 2.
Proxying would be great, I am sure I can service a fair amount of fetches with 200-400 GB. Rendering own tiles, also a possibility. I will start some basic reading on those two and see what is needed. My fair nix admin background and dev should prove helpful here, hopefully. At this point, I am still a bit in the dark, will read some... Thanks again.
