Thanks for your reply Ricardo, I had a quick look at the Virtual Servers & EM, but I figure if I setup 3 virtual wikis i.e. one for each site, I'd presumably have to replicate the common content into each wiki - so that it will appear in the search results, when a user searches the wiki? One thing I'd toyed with was using a single xwiki database, then deploying 4 seperate (one for each country, and one for agents) instances of the xwiki application that all use the same database as their source. Then if I created seperate spaces for each country and 1 for common, the content would all be in one place, but I still need a way to prevent spaces from being accessible to the public users of different websites. If we used this approach could we define a different public user for each website? Cheers Graham 2008/12/11 [Ricardo Rodriguez] Your EPEC Network ICT Team < [email protected]>
Hi Graham,
If you are looking for consultancy, I am sure http://xwiki.com is the right place to start with.
If you are simply asking if what you are looking for is possible with XWiki, I think yes. I think it is worth you take a look to Virtual servers (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowToSetupVirtualWikis) and XWiki Enterprise Manager (http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/).
XWiki has a huge number of features, many of them not obvious by now for a regular user like me, that allow fine grained access control and a complete separation between business rules, presentation and data.
I think we need a better understanding of the available tools and a lot of imagination to put things together! :-)
Hope this helps,
Ricardo

I'm currently trying to measure XWIKI against some business requirements; our business are basically looking for a simple WIKI that we can use to store corporate/enterprise knowledge in a single place and make available to the public via our websites and internally to our customer service agents.
For a little more background to the requirements, the business is a financial institution that provides loan products in different countries. Each country currently has their own website (served on different domains, with no obvious links to others), customers can apply for financial products and administer their accounts through the sites, the terminology used to describe the products is the same regardless of the country, however the business rules e.g. application process, interest rates is/can be different.
The business want to expose the content deemed as publicly available through a FAQ/WIKI section on each website, however they don't wish other countries content to be displayed on that website.
Our customer service agents should be able to search the entire WIKI when dealing with customers phone enquiries, they also wish there to be more internal information available to the agents.
I'm struggling to think of a way to achieve this using XWIKI and would be grateful of any advice.
Thanks in advance Graham
