Hi there, I need my cakephp application to support multiple clients. This means, that people from company A have their very own data, and people from company B have a completely different set of data. Think of it as an issue management application: every company has their own software applications, their own staff, their own administrators that use the same web based application, but need a company-specific set of data.
I think the best option would be to specify different databases - database A for company A right down to database Z for company Z. This could make it easy to host databases on different servers - e.g. if a company for security reasons wants to host the mysql data in their company, or if there are so many companys that one DB server just is not enough. How would I do this with cakephp? --> define a table clients that contains information on the client including which host and which database he wants to use --> user has client_id ; means user database would be the same for everyone; better ideas? --> use the specific database, e.g. the model "issues" for user A from company A is tied to database "company_A". Any ideas on how to make that work? All the best, Heidi. Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
