In its fundamental definition, multi-tenancy SaaS solutions is an architecture in which a single software application serves multi customers. When hundreds of organizations are using similar operational infrastructure, all of them can benefit from the same solution. One of the key reasons why SaaS multi-tenants has gained the upper hand in current times is because it not only offers efficient architecture but also lowers the cost of owning and maintaining the entire system.
Why are Multi-tenant SaaS solutions becoming popular?
Lower costs through economies of scale:
In a multi-tenant environment, all the individuals are using the same application and database, meaning that the cost of maintenance and development cuts down for all the customers. Also, the users need not add hardware or application to their data centers for utilizing SaaS solutions, creating a win-win situation for all parties.
Another factor that helps to lower the overall cost is that with the multi-tenant application, vendors do not need to change codes or require new software resources to add new customers. For every increase in tenants, the cost of adding a new tenant tends to be zero or a minimal at the full scale. In the long run, the customer can benefit from the economies of scale, making the cost of running the system more affordable.
Easy Upgrades
With a single central application or codebase, vendors can directly upgrade the SaaS software instead of making the changes across a large number of servers. Also, since the software development company can update the software quite quickly, the new features and updates can be rolled out immediately, and the changes are instantly available to all the users. This means that users can take advantage of the new upgrades without paying costly maintenance fees.
Can be used by an end number of Tenants
Unlike a single tenant solution, wherein the software development companies need to design a new and unique data center for every new customer, multi-tenant applications use a common infrastructure without the need for designing new solutions for new individual tenants.
Maximized Usage Of Resources
Since, the multiple tenants use the shared resources and infrastructure, the scope of optimum utilization of resources is much higher than the single-tenant application. Also, if any resources remain unutilized by the tenant, they can be easily used by another client, thus increasing the efficiency of the pooled resources.
