I understand it’s only planned for 1.0, but do you have any idea how it will work? On the same port with multiples rocksdb instances? or still different ports per instances?

Hi @benoitc,

We’d still use the same ports, same RocksDB directories etc. But, we’d make it so that the data is internally segregated; all the queries would be limited to that silo; with no chance of mixup.

That way, we can support multiple different clients on the same instance of Dgraph.
