I have subdomains for my site: clients.example.com and contractors.example.com. Are there any standards or naming conventions for the development and release candidate areas, i.e. dev-clients.example.com and rc-clients.example.com? Thanks!
I don’t think you should be exposing your development environment, just the release candidates. I guess the term you’re looking for is ‘staging‘.
On a slightly unrelated note. It could be worthwhile to change your application so that it isn’t dependent on a unique vhost or subdomain.
We can run all our applications from:
http://customername.domain.com/application_name/ or something similar.
This leaves the option of having a subdomain, but doesn’t require it. This way you wont need to add vhosts for every application and you wont need to update your DNS.
