Summary

When integrating chat features into a SaaS application, ensuring that users' private messages remain secure and isolated is crucial, particularly when clients may be competitors, like Nike and Adidas. Stream Chat offers a solution by allowing applications to be configured in multi-tenant mode, where users are organized into distinct teams that cannot interact with each other. This setup prevents potential breaches of privacy by ensuring that users can only access channels and search for other users within their own teams. Stream Chat manages this division of users and channels, mitigating the risk of data-sharing errors and offering a reliable way to maintain privacy and security in a shared messaging platform.
