I learned the same lesson... External components require a LOT more
work to set up, but give you a lot more flexibility and options for
scaling. That said, there just isn't a lot of information out there
as to people's experiences building these thins. Which is why I'm
trying to create a more general framework that others can use.
Thanks,
