I have a client with simple needs that let me use a simple solution for their five sites:
Every site simply pointed to the same datasource for common content (and every site used identical db queries... the sites are near mirrors of one another). If you wanted to put the db on one of the web servers, or all web/db stuff on one server, or all separate, it would be just as simple, at least for this app, which just shares page content across the 5 sites and accepts and processes complex form input using a single back end processing engine. If you identify the site you're coming from via an app var or something you can do all sorts of customization... the real key is for CF to use a single common dsn. --------------------------------------- Matt Robertson, MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com - Retail http://foohbar.org - ColdFusion Tools --------------------------------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
