Is it possible there is another solution to the problem? I think if you could better describe the problem(s) you are facing and how you are architected some then you may get responses from others that perhaps have faced the same problem with similar architectures ... or maybe folks can chime in with solution(s) to the problem(s). When only being presented with solutions it is hard to say much about if it is problem that folks will have and if this solution will work for them.
