Summary

Octopus Deploy offers a multi-tenancy feature designed to streamline the deployment of multiple instances of applications, particularly benefiting SaaS providers who need to deploy separate application instances for each customer. Traditional methods without tenants, such as using multiple projects or environments, often lead to scalability issues, duplicated configurations, and management challenges. The multi-tenancy approach allows for efficient management of customer-specific deployment pipelines within a single project by leveraging tenants, tenant tags, and tenant variables. This method reduces duplication, improves isolation, and provides a clear overview of deployments across environments. Tenants can represent various entities, such as customers or geographical regions, allowing for flexibility and scalability in deployments. The feature also offers guard rails to ensure variable accuracy and supports both dedicated and shared hosting models, enhancing the deployment process's robustness and efficiency.
