Multi instance deployment on single server

[Rob Khamas]

Hi all, doing a little more research on the products here. Is it possible to deploy multiple instances on the same application server? The instances need to be completely different and seperated in the sense that we will have different business sectors logging in to access their own portal, data, settings, etc..

Rather than an app server for each instance we would like to make the management easier by having all instanced on the one server.

Cheers,

Atlassian explicitly states that you should not run Jira and Confluence in the same Tomcat.

I'd strongly recommend keeping each application in dedicated app servers irrespective of what they actually are. If nothing else, the ability to stop and maintain one application without affecting another one is very important, and when you've got more than one in a container, you're asking for configuration/library conflicts and it's almost impossible to do much in the way of tuning.

+1, As Nick said please do not have the apps in the same application server.
