Using Lucene search plugin you can search on all the wiks at the same time. Look at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/LuceneSearch?text=lucene&x=0&y=0 for example. In a wiki farm, the wikis can "communicat" with each other meaning that you can link other wikis content (with the syntax: [A link on wiki "wikiname">wikiname:SomeSpace;SomePage]) and you can also have rights on a wiki for user or group from another wikis etc... > > One thing I'd toyed with was using a single xwiki database, then deploying 4 > seperate (one for each country, and one for agents) instances of the xwiki > application that all use the same database as their source.

This would be difficult to do because each instance will have it's own caches for lot's of thing so when you modify something on a instance the other instance will be aware of that. For that you can use cache clustering but it's really easier to user XEM for such a use case. Plus with XEM you can easily manage he mapping between domain names and wikis. > > Cheers > Graham > > > 2008/12/11 [Ricardo Rodriguez] Your EPEC Network ICT Team < > [EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >> Hi Graham, >> >> If you are looking for consultancy, I am sure http://xwiki.com is the >> right place to start with. >> >> If you are simply asking if what you are looking for is possible with >> XWiki, I think yes.
