Hi,

after I installed the geosuite community edition, I began toying with the idea 
of installing geoserver more than once. 

This would cut down the amount of layers shown on the get capabilites 
file....the problem being that if my current project gets off the ground, I 
will 
have around 1000 geographic themes for around 50 regions to display over a wms.

I could maybe reduce this to around 200 with a different data structure, but 
200 
layers is still too much to display in GeoCapabilites.

Theoretically, If I installed geoserver 50 times, I could seriously reduce the 
number of layers displayed.....or am I seriously missing the point here?


I am responisble for creating a wms for the landuse plans of 50 regions. Each 
region has a slightly different data structure, so I can´t really merge all 50 
together.  Each plan has up to 20 shapefiles ( I will have to start importing 
into postgis soon!).  If I had 50 geoservers, it would be quite well organised, 
but all 50 plans in one geoserver is not so easy to administer. To get an idea 
of the project, I am displaying phase 1 as static Ajax maps hier ...   
http://fnp.zgb.de (not all plans are ready yet).   My goal is to go the WMS 
route and offer all 50 plans as wms.  


If anyone has any tips I´d be most grateful,

Yours,

Robert Buckley
