Multi-tenant architecture is a software and database management approach where a single instance serves multiple users, referred to as tenants, who can customize their shared access. There are several types of multi-tenancy, including shared databases, dedicated databases per tenant, and multiple app instances with separate databases, each offering varying levels of isolation and security. This architecture provides benefits such as efficient resource management, rapid deployment, and simplified maintenance, making it particularly well-suited for cloud environments.

- 3. What is Multi-Tenant Architecture ? “Tenants” is a term for a group of users or software applications that all share access to the hardware through the underlying software. A type of software and database management architecture in which a single software instance can serve multiple users. Here, each multiple users called tenants. Tenants have some measure of customization for the shared resource, like controlling which users can access the resources or how the application looks and feels. multi tenancy is a key feature of the cloud environment. Multi Tenancy is the key feature of cloud environment.

- 5. Types of Multi- tenant ● Multi-tenancy with single Multi- tenant database ● Multi-tenancy with one database per tenant ● Multiple app instances with multiple databases
- 6. Multi-tenancy with single Multi-tenant database ● Also known as Shared Database. ● This is the first and simple type of multi-tenancy. Its using single application instance and the single database instance to host the tenants. ● This architecture is highly scalable, and when more tenants are added the database is easily scaled up with more data storage. ● At database level you need to take one column to store tenant_id for identifying the data is belongs to which tenant.

- 8. Multi-tenancy with one database per tenant ● In this type of multitenant It uses a single application instance and an individual database for each tenant. ● Inside the main server, we have separate databases dedicated only to specific tenants. ● By using this you can achieve the highest level of tenant isolation and data security – data remains invisible to other users.
- 10. Multiple app instances with multiple databases ● In this type every tenant has a separate instance of the application with separate database. ● This type of multitenant architecture is highly secure in compare to others. ● Tenants has full control over to instance as their instances are separate.
- 12. Benefits of using Multi-tenant ● More efficient : In terms of reduces the need for individual users to manage infrastructure and handle updates and maintenance. Individual tenants can rely on a central cloud provider, rather than their own teams, to handle those routine chores. ● Fast Deployment : Simple process of adding new tenants by reducing the manual set up and release the application ● Convenient maintenance : Every change made in your software, such as configurations, updates and user provisioning will reflect in each tenant. ● Efficient Resources : Shares all resources, offering optimum efficiency and the capacity to power multiple users at once, because it is a dynamic environment where users access resources simultaneously. ● Beneficiary to use with cloud environment.
- 13. How to use Multi-tenant ? Database level changes ● Create a new table `tenants` ● Add columns as per your tenant requirements (name, id, contact, configs tenant information) ● Add `tenant_id` column in every table Code level changes ● You can filter tenant specific data using tenanat_id using middleware or header as per your project requirements and specifications. ● For media files you can create separate folders based on tenants for easy and fast management Contact us to create / update your application with multi-tenant
