Being a start up i don't really want to incur the cost of another server. I have a cheap server i could put it on but its almost unusable it is so poor. I will need them to be able to run simultaneously as it is a work in progress and I really need a staging server. In my method above i was actually going to create a seperate datasource and seperate db as well. Another thing I need to consider, which is probably the most important as I will have to find a solution regardless. Is the fact that my production build will have to be slightly different from my dev. You see the application talks to 3rd party webservices. In dev these will be testing versions of the webservices and live versions for production, so I need some sophisticated way of switching between the two.
