 <\/p>\n

Multitenancy<\/a> is one of those words that everyone has heard but you will not find two people expressing the same meaning. In fact one doesn’t need to fully comprehend what multitenancy stands for -unless you are a software engineer- <\/ins>but a high level understanding might be very useful, specially talking about SaaS, and in particular when it is related with HR technology.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, everyone who is in the process of building an HR SaaS environment<\/a> should think hardly how multitenancy will be implemented<\/strong>. I\u2019ll describe later in this article and the next ones to follow how this idea traverse not only the technology you\u2019ll use but also the way you think about how to optimize your resources and how to save time and money.<\/p>\n

For me a clear and simple definition of a multitenant system that holds all the implications of the technology behind it would be following one: \u201cA system which is shared among many customers, but that behaves in a flexible way andtkcert<\/a> operates as it is not shared to anyone else\u201d. This is very easy said but really difficult to build. In the subsequent articles I\u2019ll describe the uses and implications following different scenarios:<\/p>\n

I. The technology behind a multitenant system<\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n

The first article will describe some aspects of the technology involved in building a multitenant platform. I\u2019ll try to show how simple tasks could be very complex to manage if you don\u2019t have the correct technology supporting your process.<\/p>\n

II. Configuration and maintenance<\/a><\/h4>\n

In this article I will explain how to build up a multitenant enviroment by isolating collisions between different client instances and how do you benefit of managing evolution trough object inheritance. <\/strong><\/p>\n

III. Multitenancy and the HR Systems<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Ok, fine. We know what it is, but what
tkcert.com<\/a> are the implications for an HR System? In this article I will analyse some aspects of a multitenant system from an HR professional perspective. What are the benefits of using a fully multitenant system?<\/p>\n

IV. Multitenancy technology: how to save time and money?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

I think that this subject is one of the main drivers of the entire idea behind multitenant technologies. Why start using multitenant systems if it will not be cheaper than my current one?<\/p>\n

V. The future of multitenancy in a global environment<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Generally speaking when you think about a distributed system which additionally is configured to your needs, you are normally imagining an application that behaves as a multitenant system. The major software solutions out there are moving in this direction. In this last article, let\u2019s try to find out if we\u2019re really on the right track.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
