Three easy steps..
The client will get...+ a professional, slick and easy to remember link to his applications+ a static URL, which will never change
http://qlikview/MovieDB
The developer will have....+ full control which application the users are accessing+ no wrong, outdated links distributed by the user+ absolute freedom of redirecting to new versions of the app, without the user noticing
