Hi devs,
Hi, Danushka.
Can we create vhosts dynamically?. In fact when I go though the
code I can
see that it is doable with little changes but what are the
complications
with approach? Also I would like to know how scalable it is to
create so
many virtual hosts at runtime.
What is 'many' when talking about virtual hosts? I mean, usually when
you're thinking about upper limits for this kind of thing, there's
some other issue, that may be easier to solve?
I suppose you could test the memory impact and so forth with a script
that generated a 'virtualhosts.xml' file with N uniquely named
'<virtualhost />' elements, where N approaches MAXINT or whatever?
However, I can't see a (good) reason for creating a large amount of
virtual hosts either, really, like Robbie says. What are you trying
to do here, enforce user or application separation for a large number
of users/applications, or something similar?
Also, dynamically adding virtual hosts could cause problems if people
simply misspel their names, although you could add a security
permission for adding virtual hosts, and only grant it to certain
users. See dynamically created queues, for example...
Cheerz,
Andrew.
