Different Drupal
installations with multiple databases
Multiple Drupal Installation
architecture will separate completely one site from another. Most of the time
this is not the best solution, especially if the sites should be integrated one
with the other

Multiple sites in
one Drupal installation with multiple databases
A very nice feature that Drupal provides
is the option to manage multiple sites within the same Drupal installation. All
the sites created in Drupal should be kept inside the sites folder. The sites
folder can contain as many sites as we want. Drupal redirects the user to the
appropriate site based on the URL entered. If no site matches, the user is
redirected to the site installed in the “default” folder. Also, we have the
option to share modules and themes between all the sites, by placing them in
the “all/modules” folder.

Multiple sites in
one Drupal installation with shared tables
Another option to manage multiple sites within the same Drupal installation with same database. All the sites created in Drupal should be kept inside the sites folder. In this architecture sites share one database. We can add prefix/post-fix to site specific tables. Tables with prefix/post-fix will not be shared by other sites.

Multiple sites in
one Drupal installation with single database
In this architecture single database will be shared by all sites. Sites may have different configurations.
