We envision using xwiki to manage 2 different parts:
1. A public one accessible to our customers only
2. A private one for internal use only
My question is the following: what is the best strategy to achieve a clean content
separation:
Space partitioning (i.e. one wiki, but 2 or more spaces)
or
wiki partitioning (i.e. separate wikis)
Space partitioning seems easier to set up, because only 1 wiki is needed. However, my
concern is the risk of having a sloppy employee inadvertently publishing an internal page
on the wrong space, i.e. on a public space. With the wiki partitioning scenario, I
don't even know if this is possible to set up xwiki so as to have several wikis while
running on the same code base. On top of that, I would like to have internal users being
able to search through a common index (public + private), while customers could only
search the public one. I don't know if that's possible at all with wiki
partitioning.
Has anyone of you guys experience with such a setup?
What are the pros and cons of each?
What would the experts / architects recommend here?
Thanks for the insights.
