Modulo a significant advance in varnish dynamic backends I've missed, I'd do this with Varnish talking to one or more local or remote Nginx instances - it's trivial to implement that dynamic routing there. I wouldn't move to nginx alone however - varnish definitely does a better job of caching. IMHO & IME :-) Jonathan
