What is a Multi-Tenant?
- In a multi–tenant architecture, a single instance of the application serves multiple tenants. This means that all tenants access the same application codebase and infrastructure.
- Instead of sharing the same application instance, each tenant operates within its isolated environment. This isolation ensures that a tenant’s data and configuration settings are separate from those of other tenants.
- One of the primary features of multi–tenancy is data segregation. Each tenant’s data is stored separately from other tenants, typically in dedicated database schemas, tables, or documents. This segregation ensures that one tenant cannot access or modify another tenant’s data.
- Multi-tenancy allows for customization to meet the individual needs of each tenant. This can include custom branding, configurations or workflows customized to the specific requirements of the tenant.
- Multi-tenancy enables rapid scalability to accommodate the growth of tenants. As new tenants are onboarded, the existing infrastructure can be scaled up or out to handle increased demand, without the need for significant changes to the underlying architecture.
Build a Multi-Tenant Architecture in MongoDB
In the dynamic landscape of modern software development, accommodating multiple tenants within a single application is becoming increasingly common. Whether weu’re building a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform or a multi–user application also adopting a multi-tenant architecture is essential for scalability, efficiency and cost–effectiveness.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore How to build a multi-tenant architecture in MongoDB, a popular NoSQL database, through clear explanations and practical examples.
