[OSM-dev] Archive.org Tile Serving

How do the tiles get updated between the (looks like) 2 servers split by 
GeoDNS today?  Are the individual/independent rendering servers using 
mod_tile (or similar) or is there a central renderer that delivers tiles 
to both servers for serving to the end users?

If the latter, then maybe the same approach could be used to populate 
and refresh Archive.org?
