querying multiple backends at once, as if they were a single instance

There's an environment with several VPCs in the cloud where I may haveto provide each VPC with its own local Graphite server, and have allinstances within a VPC send metrics only to that server. That's fine.All VPCs will have the exact same data structure within Graphite (samepaths).

But is there a way to... collate? federate?... have all these servers bequeried at once from outside, as if they were a single Graphiteinstance? Obviously, each individual server would have to live under aseparate root on the device that performs the collation.

Could graphite-web be configured like that, pointing at separategraphite backends, and placing each backend under its own root?
