Subdomains on the Fly

Subdomains on the Fly

We're a trying to accomplish the following on a Ubuntu Server 13.04
installation.
We host SaaS apps for customers are are currently moving off shared
hosting environments due to limitations with resources and fats growth.
We'd like the best environment to host customer's web apps in a
subdomain'ed environment. For example, customers purchase custom developer
business apps from us. Their domain names could be anything from:
customer1.domain.com powerhouse.domain.com healthcare.domain.com
The domain.com represents our domain. We'd like to set up a single server
to host a few customer apps. We'd like to do with without a plesk/cpanel
environment if possible to save on cost. I have no idea where to start or
to look. We have a LAMP server up (ubuntu as mentioned above) that hosts a
single site perfectly fine. We'd like to host more than one though. We
want a single IP address assigned to the box as well.
If anyone can provide direction or insight on this, that would be great.
Extra Info:
We use HyperV to manage a ubuntu instance.
Requirements:
Single IP per box.
Thanks again.
