subdomains SaaS

[menglim]

We're planning to deploy a saas application where we're planning to setup subdomains per account. questions need helping on is if we would need to spread the load say 100 accounts in (1-100).domain.com and would like 101.domain.com on another server.

Need advice on how this can be done - preferably automatically/programmatically.

Hi,

Not 100% sure what you want to accomplish - but you can quite easy build a script to create subdomains for all users/domains via the UAPI:

UAPI Functions - SubDomain::addsubdomain - Developer Documentation - cPanel Documentation

documentation.cpanel.net

I'm also curious what the motivation behind needing to set the subdomains up in different accounts is (motivation for that is purely curiosity)

My main concern is I wouldn't want to put all eggs in 1 basket. So if I give each user a subdomain account and users [1-500].domain.com are in serverA, I'd like users [501-1000].domain.com in serverB
