Help in understand Magento 2 Multistore capabilities and restrictions better

Hi,

 

I've read docs and 3rd party tutorials on Magento 2's multisite capability. It seems pretty straight forward to add a 2nd store/domain and manage it within a single backend with multiple front ends. I do have a few questions for clarity:

 

1. I'm basically setting up a new brand. How difficult is it in the future to separate the site from multi site? I imagine it's similar to migrating a site where you back up the full instance and move it, but I'm unsure of how this is handled when a website is part of a multiple site.

 

2. For a smaller site, which the 2nd will be, what should expectations be around performance? I'm on a 8gb/4 vCPU instance on Digital Ocean droplet so I think it should fine at least in the interim.

 

3. This might be a dumb question, but does each extension installed need to be installed for each store. I figure yes, but want to make sure and I also wouldn't want to use extensions on one site or the other I don't want to use.

 

Thanks in advance!
