What about rsync? This data dissemination problem seems like it would
be a really good fit for rsync:
- it's mostly text information
- a lot of small files (assuming we want to keep days+channels in
separate files)
- only has to send *changes* to the files
For each new day, it will need to take an entirely new copy of the
data, but when it refreshes a previous day, there will be almost no
data transfer, since the schedule is mostly the same.
It would be a lot of individual requests, unfortunately. You'd want to
be able to request each day+channel individually.
