All three connections share DATA ID  information,  but should otherwise have "independent" existence so  that they can be configured to have different "behavioral" attributes;  that is, the ADD connection saves the data ids for items successfully  persisted to an 'in-memory' table for later lookups, and UPDATE and  DELETE requests can only be issued for DATA IDs known to be valid for  the "current" session (thus, the "in-memory" table lookups) and each  connection may have attributes such as "send" rates, etc.

This is as easy as calling reactor.connectTCP() three times.  There's nothing special about the first call, or the second call, or the third call.  Each one just sets up a connection attempt.

Try taking echoclient.py from the core examples and adding some more connectTCP calls to it, see what happens.
