[opencms-dev] Can different installations of OpenCms connect to the same db schema?

Hi All,

We have an OpenCms 6 application.

Currently there exist multiple installations (using sites/default) for
different brands, connecting to separate db schema. Now we are thinking of
using single db schema by using separate sites for each brand (i.e.,
sites/brandA, sites/brandB etc.)

I can see two options to do this

1) Have a single installation connecting to common db schema and keep the
content under separate sites (i.e., sites/brandA, sites/brandB etc.) for
each brands. As per the opencms documentation, this is supported.

2) Here is my Qn, Is it possible to keep multiple installation of openCms,
each using its on separate sites for content (i.e., sites/brandA,
sites/brandB etc.) and connect to the same underlying opencms db schema? If
yes, does the openCms admin console behave consistently across the
installations to support concurrent content customisation of each site (off
course with controlled user privileges)

Please let me know If my description is confusing, so that I will try to be
more clear
Thanks in advance for help in this regard,
Shency
