Re: Mall Functionality of Ofbiz

[BJ Freeman <bj...@free-man.net>]

currently, if you have a different company you need to run different
instances of ofbiz that are using different databases (OTTB)
The same company can run differnt eccommerce sites from one instance of
ofbiz.
you can, using Apache httd server have virtual Domains (stores) on one
server.
the layout really depends on how many stores (different companies) you
are going to run.
You also need to consider load balancing.
