Summary

Several discussions have appeared over the years relating to the use of the same application deployment on multiple domains. Such operation is available through virtual domains on the web host.

However, operation of the same deployment on multiple virtual hosts is functionally different than of multiple deployments, because path remapping occurs on the basis of deployment instance.

It is not possible to deploy a single application instance across multiple domains, yet maintain separate mapping tables for each instance.

Motivation

Clustering of domains may simplify bulk deployments, for example, if the administrator wishes to provide users with choices over URL appearance or other operational characteristics of the application, without maintaining distinct application deployments.

Describe the solution

Requested is an administrative options to define multiple zones of address mapping, each zone assignable to a different domain name (or base URL inclusive of a base path).
