Hello RedStain,

We would absolutely recommend building one portal server with multiple sharepoint sites.

R> WHAT I HEARD
R> Looking at Sharepoint it suggests that you can use Sharepoint as a
R> heavy
R> duty document repository. I heard that microsoft is also moved over
R> to using
R> sharepoint instead of SMB mounted document storage.
R> WHAT I WANT TO KNOW
R> Shall I use one portal server to truss up multiple independent
R> Sharepoint
R> Team Services websites INSTEAD of building a single monolithic Portal
R> as
R> best practice. I am worried a monolithic Portal will require a
R> massive DB
R> which take too long to restore.
R> ADDENDUM
R> I am guessing multiple STS sites will have independent DBs which are
R> more
R> granular in management so I can manage disaster recoveries with
R> minimum
R> disruption.
