What is Multi Tenancy?

• Multi Tenancy showcases an architecture within
  which a single instance of a software application
  serves multiple clients
• Each of these clients is termed as a tenant
• These tenants would be offered provision for
  customization to a certain extent, like changes
  in the UI colour or certain design patterns etc.
• They would not be allowed customization into the
  main source code

Introduction to Multi Tenant BI

• Multi tenant BI refers to a single Business
  Intelligence instance that serves multiple
  organizations / clients
• Such BI solutions provide the file / folder / row
  / theme level secure multi tenant environment
• Multi tenancy is imbibed in most of the popular
  BI tools like Pentaho, Jaspersoft etc.

Why Multi Tenancy in BI?

• Turns out to be economical since there is sharing
  of development and maintenance costs
• Unlike Single tenancy (with a focus on clients
  having their own software instances and access to
  source code), Multi Tenancy focuses on the
  service provider to touch multiple instances of
  the software and get updates
• In this novel approach, the service provider will
  need to make updates only once
