Re: [Quickfixj-users] QuickFIX - Query on multi tenant support

The answer is yes, but no.

Yes, it's technically possible to have acceptors and initiators running 
on different machines that use the same session ids (assuming the 
machines aren't somehow participating in a cluster that makes them a 
single logical unit).

No, you probably shouldn't do that, unless you have a very particular 
use-case. The point of session ids are to identify senders and targets. 
It's hard for me to imagine a scenario where it makes sense to have the 
same target id (which is part of the session id) hosted on different 
acceptors. The same session id shouldn't be in use on different 
acceptors/initiators at the same time. It defeats the purpose of the 
sequence numbers used within a session.
