Temporary Folders
Posted: Mon Mar 23, 2009 2:34 pm
I am creating a preview for a CMS system to be for sale. For the preview, I'd like to avoid people editing files as other people are editing files etc, which would just basically be a clusterf$%^. So the best thing I can think of at the moment is to create a separate temporary directory that each user gets directed to with a copy of the CMS, and that gets deleted when the user leaves the page. However, I'm quite concerned about the impact on the server, there will be a lot of hits for the preview, that's a lot of directories getting created and deleted. Is this a valid concern? Are there any other suggestions for how to set up the preview system?
