Multi-Site Support?

[aionescu-zz]

Multi-Site (and multi-domain) support would be very useful, or at start, at least some instruction on how to configure NginX easily to achieve this.

Not sure exactly what you mean -- The ability to use one Azimuth instance for multiple sites/domains?

The ability to use one Azimuth instance for multiple sites/domains?

Yes.

But since Meteor doesn't seem to support this now (or I've understood something wrong), than at least a script or some automation to easily add a new domain/site on the same machine.

[mcrider]

I see your point, but I think this is out of Azimuth's domain and more relevant to the deploy script or server environment being used. And turning Azimuth into a multi-instance CMS (like WPMU to WP) is something I'd rather not introduce, at least not until it has really matured.

I think this is a very important feature since for most small sites is an overkill to dedicate all the resources and and effort alone: it's just not worth.

I have to agree with @aionescu : multi-site is just to important for real scenarios. Only big organizations can afford one site per server and also admins to tune settings; for the rest is the other way around :put as many sites/domains on the same installation as possible).

For the vast majority of small/medium orgs, a out-of-the-box solution is needed: a simple UI to add new domains/sites.

Okay, reopening, but this is a difficult problem that I'm not particularly sure about how to solve. We need to figure out best practices/tools for setting up virtual hosts with Meteor and what kind of UI to use/where to put it. This is definitely backburner for me but I'd love to hear any approaches people might have.

Also agree that without this feature a CMS is not very helpful for most real-world scenarios.

but in an automated manner!

For now this seems like the only working solution: http://stackoverflow.com/a/16578202

but this would require a "controller/admin" instance of Azimuth, to be able to add/remove/manage the other instances.

and what kind of UI to use/where to put it.

IMO only CRUD like one would be more than enough.
