Is it possible to have a Network of Brokers where each of the brokers is a

The idea here to to build a system that has good performance characteristics
and can be scaled easily by simply adding more brokers.
I see a couple of potential issues with this and am wondering if anyone has
already tried to build something similar.
The short answer is yes. You can manage the links between each broker
and create hierarchies to your hearts desire. Performance _is_ an issue
- especially if you are bandwidth conscious. You'll need to manage, as
appropriate, what endpoints/destinations are allowed to be "shared"
across your infrastructure (between each broker link).
I'm not exactly sure how the master/slave system can accommodate
horizontal tiers...sorry.
