At first, the term "multi-tenancy" might sound like a technical challenge, but it’s actually a straightforward strategy for organizing software to serve multiple users seamlessly. While the concept itself is simple to grasp, its implementation can vary depending on the specific needs of different applications.
Let’s begin by defining what multi-tenancy really means.
Multi-tenant SaaS applications are a type of software that allows multiple users to access the same software instance. This is achieved by partitioning the software into separate, isolated environments that are dedicated to each tenant. Customer data could be stored in a separate database for each tenant, or in a shared database with data assigned to tenants by unique identifiers.
As an example, consider a email service provider like Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. Each customer (tenant) has their own set of email accounts, calendars, contacts, and other data, all of which is isolated from other customers. In this case, the tenant can invite users (its employees) to their account and they might be charged per user per month/year.
