But here, it makes the thing really easy, it autodeploys, the underpinning technology (0mq) makes the socket rendez-vous easy. For a first proof of concept I just love the usability !
Now yeah you can do it by installing a proxy on one of your servers ... ha but first you need a public server on the internet, tweak the services, expose it a little bit more to hacks etc etc ...
