Introduction to Virtual Multi-Tenancy™ (VMT™)

According to Microsoft Corporation, "Multi-tenancy may be the most significant paradigm shift that an architect accustomed to designing isolated, single tenant applications has to make. This requires an architecture that maximizes the sharing of resources across tenants, but that is still able to differentiate data belonging to different customers.”

It is widely recognized that on-demand applications must support multiple clients or organizations (usually called “tenants’) to eliminate costly manual provisioning of installations for each new tenant.

While developers can build multi-tenancy into their code and databases, the Wrapped Apps™ Service Delivery Platform (SDP) provides a faster and less expensive system-level solution – Virtual Multi-Tenancy™ (VMT™) – our patent-pending technology that increases reliability, reduces maintenance overhead, and allows developers to focus resources on their core product functionality.

Following a straightforward wrapping of applications or content with our standard interface, our SDP provides automated management support for the provisioning of application instances for each required tenant in real-time.

The Wrapped Apps™ SDP enables a superior user experience. The Virtual Multi-Tenancy™ (VMT™) component of our SDP provides dedicated resources for each tenant at the system level separated from other tenants, so that unforseen problems with one tenant's deployment do not affect others; resulting in unmatched security and reliability.
