The goal of multitenancy is to maximize resource sharing by allowing multiple users (tenants) to log in and use a single severserver/cluster at the same time, in a tenant-isolated manner. That is, each user is given the experience of using his/her own server, rather than a shared environment. Multitenancy ensures optimal performance of the system's resources such as memory and hardware and also secures each tenant's personal data.

You can register tenant domains using the Management Console of WSO2 products.

Excerpt
Info

When multitenancy is enabled and a tenant becomes inactive for a long period of time, the tenant is unloaded from the server's memory. By default, the time period is 30 minutes. After that, the tenant has to log in again before sending requests to the server.

You change the default time period allowed for tenant inactiveness by adding -Dtenant.idle.time=<time_in_minutes> java property to the product's startup script ( ./wso2server.sh file for Linux and wso2server.bat  for Windows) as shown below:

 

Code Block
JAVA_OPTS \
    -Dtenant.idle.time=30 \

Adding and viewing a tenant

To add and view a tenant, take the following steps:

...

  • Domain -  The domain name for the organization, which should be unique (For example: abc.com)
  • Usage plan for the tenant - The usage plan defines limitations (such as number of users) for the tenant
  • First Name/Last Name - Name of the tenant admin
  • Admin Username - The login username the tenant admin. Username always ends with the domain name (For example: admin@abc.com)
  • Email - The email address of the admin
