Continuous Delivery Office Hours Ep.7: Modern multi-tenancy

Multi-tenancy, a concept tracing back to machine sharing, has evolved significantly with advancements in SaaS and lightweight virtualization, focusing on reducing complexity and improving resource allocation. Traditionally, multi-tenancy involved shared application instances and databases among multiple tenants, but this approach often led to complexities and risks, like data leakage and service disruption. Modern practices favor allocating dedicated instances to each tenant, enhancing data isolation, and simplifying resource management, making it easier to charge based on actual usage. Continuous Delivery (CD) tools now play a crucial role in this transformation by facilitating the deployment of multiple instances with tenant-specific configurations, effectively shifting multi-tenancy management from code to deployment pipelines. This adaptation allows tenants to be not only customers but also physical locations needing dedicated instances, ensuring high resource utilization without impacting others. The evolution of multi-tenancy is discussed by industry experts in the Continuous Delivery Office Hours series, offering insights and resources for further exploration.
