Single vs Multi Tenant – Key Differences
Single Tenant Multi Tenant
Any software can be delivered through single tenant model. No change required in software
Software architecture should be designed for multi-tenancy, in order to be able to serve multiple customers at the same time
Each customer gets their own environment (logically) isolated from other customers
All customers share a common infrastructure environment
More environments are required as the number of customers grow
Single shared environment can typically handle hundreds of customers (depending on the complexity and concurrency)
Can pick and choose the size of the environments according to the usage by customer (tenant)
All customers (tenant) will get the same shared resources. Differentiation is difficult
Please read the following blog for more information on business differences between single and multi tenant model
