They will all use the same layout for the most part, and will link between each other. When I initially thought of doing this, I figured if I put the apps at different roots - /billing /support etc - then the links wouldn''t work at all, because

How are you guys handling threads or server processes that have to, for example, process the data in your application on a periodic basis? Cron jobs can do it and then run on the database.
