Why can't you run multiple applications in the same openbd instance? Create 
seperate subfolders in the one openbd webroot, give them each an unique 
application name and done. I wouldn't recommend it though for "hundreds" of 
apps. My advice: only put multiple apps in one openbd instance if security 
is not an issue and there are no dependencies between the apps. Otherwise, 
go for one app = one openbd instance, like others are suggesting. In fact, 
I would recommend you to take that one step further and isolate the big 
applications in terms of resources, into seperate JVM's, with their own 
memory space. You can do that by having multiple Tomcat/Jetty instances on 
the same server. Our production servers are actually a mix.
 
However, I think what you are really struggling with is how to route 
traffic from http://host1.example.com to 
http://127.0.0.1:8080/openbd/webroot/app1/. There are different solutions 
for that, I prefer to use proxy in front. So Apache HTTP on Linux (or 
Nginx) or IIS+ARR on Windows. Use the webserver to setup virtual hosts and 
route traffic to the correct instance/openbd/subdirectory in the 
application server.
 
Unfortunately there is no "installer" that is going to help you with that, 
it is not an easy route, but the most flexible setup in my opinion if you 
want to host many applications on the same server. And possible on both 
Linux and Windows.
