You know about NFS, samba, and other tools, right? These allow you to mount a file system from server A onto server B. You want to create a fileserver machine.
fileserver - houses huge files on large fast disk farms
server A writes to fileserver's filesystem
server B, C ,D ,E, ....Z mount fileserver's filesystem readonly and run the extracts and insert data into a db.
