In our project we have a single sitecore root path but the client has configured the same root path in sitedefinitions.config with 4 different domain names. Is this correct?
In the above context can the site be considered as a multi site solution? My understanding is that for a solution to be multi site you need to have multiple root paths in sitecore for example the below sitecore structure.
However we do not have two root paths but still we are using 4 different settings in our site definition. Is this correct?
Following is the way we are using site definitions in our configuration file.
<site name="www.example.org" patch:after="site[@name='modules_website']"
targetHostName="www.example.org" hostName="www.example.org" database="web">
<site name="example.org" patch:after="site[@name='modules_website']"
targetHostName="example.org" hostName="example.org" database="web">
<site name="www2.example.org" patch:after="site[@name='modules_website']"
targetHostName="www2.example.org" hostName="www2.example.org"database="web">
<site name="example" patch:after="site[@name='modules_website']"
targetHostName="beta.example.org"hostName="beta.example.org"database="web">
The difference between the four configurations is that the last three targetHostName redirect to the first one. I do not understand if this can correctly be called a multi site solution as in actual there are no multiple sites in our Sitecore instance.
