yes, but one thing you should not underestimate is the resources orion uses
for each application. we have a very similar concept for an online store
app (deploy it once per customer). but this can become a problem in terms
of memory usage and server startup time (although the latter has improved a
lot recently) if the application is large. we really underestimated that.
just do some tests (deploy your app n times) look at memory usage and do
the math if it this approach scales well enough for your requirements.
