Overview

Design multi-tenant environments with proper isolation, create tenants, allocate resources, and configure tenant recipes for standardized provisioning.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this module, you will be able to:

• Design a multi-tenant environment with proper isolation and resource boundaries
• Create tenants and allocate resources using the VergeOS tenant management system
• Configure tenant recipes for standardized, repeatable tenant provisioning

Prerequisites

• Completion of Module 1: Architecture Fundamentals -- understanding of VergeOS platform architecture
• Completion of Module 4: Networking -- understanding of virtual networks and tenant network isolation
• Completion of Module 5: Storage -- understanding of vSAN tiers and storage allocation
• Completion of Module 6: Virtual Machines -- understanding of VM provisioning and recipes

Estimated Time

3 hours (1.5 hours reading + 1.5 hours lab)

Topics

• Virtual Data Center Concepts — Understanding VergeOS tenants as isolated virtual data centers, resource allocation models, and tenant hierarchy.
• Creating & Configuring Tenants — Creating tenants, assigning compute, memory, and storage quotas, and configuring tenant-level networking.
• Tenant Recipes — Building reusable tenant recipes for standardized provisioning, including pre-configured networks, VMs, and settings.
• Resource Allocation & Scaling — Tenant node planning, right-sizing strategies, and scaling paths for single-node and multi-node tenant deployments.
• Tenant Isolation & Security — Network isolation between tenants, resource guarantees, and security boundaries in a multi-tenant deployment.
• Lab: Multi-Tenant Environment — Create tenants, allocate resources, deploy from a tenant recipe, and verify tenant isolation.
