I have a multi-tenant license. I have read everything I can find on your site to better understand the value of this. Can you please advise on the intended strategic benefits? In other words, does it just allow me to install multiple instances on different servers in different locations. Is this for load balancing purposes or operational flexibility or both? How exactly do I take advantage?

Please advise the best practice for installing so that Laraship can be “hosted in multiple subdomains or domains”. Today, my installation resides in my public_html folder. If I want to create something similar to your showcase https://whatthefork.co.uk/ How do I do that? Do I create a new directory and build an entirely new installation, databases and everything with a whole other dashboard? Or is there a way to scale it more incrementally?

Hello, The multi-Tenant license can be helpful in the following cases:
  1. an application that needs to be hosted in multiple subdomains or domains
  2. Web development agency that needs to use Laraship for multiple projects without the need to buy a license per project.
  3. an application with multiple installations for different reasons.

Hello Mike, some clients are looking to server your installation under multiple domains, or for example you to create a marketplace but with different categories, for example food marketplace, clothes marketplace, there are many test cases,

I’m sorry, but your answer isn’t making sense. I am asking how I scale Laraship. I want to know how to scale it down, right now, but as well as how to scale it up.

For example: mydomain1.com is a full marketplace with vendors and sells many different products. I have installed it on my vps server under: ~/mydomain1.com/public_html/

Now I want to produce a more focused implementation for mydomain2.com. The owner of mydomain2.com does not want to be a Vendor on mydomain1.com but to have a dedicated user experience focused only on their products with their own them and customization.

Do I achieve this by simply performing an installation from scratch into the new domain directories etc?

Hello,

In this case, you will require another standalone implementation, if you have WHM or Plesk you can clone accounts,
