If I may venture a guess, David is saying that OFBiz has been
discovered by hosting providers.
Note that OFBiz is a very big application, and there is no real
benefit to splitting one instance among several companies, because
each company will require a lot of resources. In general, OFBiz is
suited for much larger companies than an oscommerce-class product.
(I'm not saying this to brag--it just is the way it is, not
necessarily good or bad.)

David,
sorry if you're annoyed, but I haven't found anything about this
subject in the archives.
Maybe I did not use the correct search terms. If you look at this
thread here, three other people have given the same answer, which I
read as: There's no real feature for that, you'll have to create
separate installations.
Did I misread anything? Any pointer would be very beneficial. If
there are good ways of doing this and nobody knows about it, it's a
pitty, isn't it?
Regards,
Torsten

your suggestion does make sense; that's for sure. I got the
impression that this hasn't been a topic yet as OFBiz has
obviously not yet been discovered by hosting providers. (Well,
it has! We're one and we're looking at it.)
That's not exactly true, though it may seem that way because we
don't support the variety of shared deployment that you have in
mind.
Actually, in the last five years this has probably been discussed
about 2000 times. Okay, that might be a small exaggeration, but
realistically the number is probably about 40-50 and you'll find
all sorts of interesting insights by searching the current
mailing lists at the ASF, and even more on the old mailing list
archives at mail.ofbiz.org.
