Hi list, I am in the process of cleaning / re-configuring a single Geoserver 2.8.0 instance on an Ubuntu 14.04 machine.
The current configuration publishes only vector data and has approximately 100 workspaces and each workspace collects data from a different data stores (i.e. 100 data stores) and each workspace publishes only one layer for each data store (i.e. 100 layers published). The thing that I cannot understand is that although there are 100 data stores *ALL* of them connect to the same remote database server (PostgreSQL 9.4), using the same schema in the database server, and using the same user credentials. I was told that at the time of installation (~1.5 years ago) the person responsible backed this up with evidence (unfortunately not documented) suggesting that such a setup ensures INSPIRE compliance for the published data and security is increased. My understanding was that a new data store would be created if data which needs to be published were stored in a different format / structure (i.e. publishing a shape file and a table in the same geoserver instance requires two stores or publishing two tables in different schema requires two stores and so on.) Can you think of any reason why would someone have multiple data stores connecting to the same source?
