Hey,

I am interested in creating multiple nextcloud machines that would host different data. However, I am quite unsure about how to do it.

Here is the setup I would create :

- 2 server with nextcloud with 2 raids 1 disks
- 2 servers with some raid1 that are perfect copy to have 100% uptime
- 2 ha proxy one to failover

But here is my issue. I don’t want to have something named [cloud1.test.com](http://cloud1.test.com) and [cloud2.test.com](http://cloud2.test.com) but rather having all instances under [cloud.test.com](http://cloud.test.com) and even if both of these machines have different data. I know that for login I could use SSO or something like that but what’s about this “separation” while still being under the same URL?

Are there any possibilities to do that?

I think this is part of an enterprise feature: [https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-announces-global-scale-architecture-as-part-of-nextcloud-12/](https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-announces-global-scale-architecture-as-part-of-nextcloud-12/)
