Multiple independent sites using the same CMS installation?
Hello,
Years ago, I built my own ASP.net CMS platform (which is still in use today, running about 70 sites).
Each of these sites uses it's own database and located on a different domain, but has a sub-application called "admin" which runs on the same CMS installation (same code files) as the others.
This way I'm able to update code on the CMS on a single location without having to update it on each of the 70+ sites.
I was wondering if this is possible with Umbraco: Instead of having to install the entire system on every domain - to install just one central instance, and duplicate just some of the basic code to run each site..
The Database, config and cache files for each site will be of course on each domain, but all the CMS code will reside in a separate, central location.
When someone connects to that CMS from domain A, the CMS will read the site's config and will know to work on that specific database and the specific data files.
I hope I made it clear enough.. So, is this possible?
I have read your post, and it when you write install just one central instance, and duplicate just some of the basic code to run each site, then I would recommend you to have a look at the Umbraco as a Service product.
