The dynamic map engine is also useful for developers and administrators that need to test multiple map engines and don't want to have to change map engine id's in client configuration when they want to switch map engines, since a dynamic map engine can be configured with one back end map engine client and will simply act as a front for that engine, allowing the administrator to change the back end map engine id in the dynamic map engine configuration and have everything that points to the dynamic map engine now work with the new back end map engine.
