                 Key: OFBIZ-2766
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2766
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: framework
            Reporter: Marc Morin


Ability to run multiple instances of an ofbiz deployment within the same VM to 
enable increased resource utilization.

There are a number of cases, depending upon how independent the tenants are 
from one another.  In our particular case, we need to deploy a large number of 
tenants, all running the same application suite built on top of ofbiz.  This 
means that they share all .properties, .xml, .ftl files and their only private 
data is maintained by private databases.

Requirements are separate database for each tenant, but possible some shared 
entities.  (want to maintain ability to have tenants have direct jdbc/odbc 
access to their database).  UserLogin space is seperate for each tenant.

Tenant selection is via hostname and/or url and maintained in session.

An application needs to be developed to manage the life cycle of the tenants.  

We have an implementation of this type of deployment.  It would take some work 
to extract it from our application in order to develop a generic feature set.
