Multi-Tenancy / Multiple Domains
The RackCorp platform provides a powerful ability both at the portal and API layers to create “virtual customer hierarchy” in our system. This allows you to logically group services together in a hierarchy-like manner This allows access to be segmented to specific services, which can be advantageous for a permissions model, an ease-of-access model, as well as usage tracking as reports can be created at any levels throughout the hierarchy.
Virtual Customers may represent government departments, projects, regions, etc. Administrative users can then be created / assigned to be able to manage any point in the hierarchy and below.
In a case where a government has multiple departments / email domains, a new virtual customer for each department/domain can be created, and that department's own IT staff assigned to that virtual customer which gives them access to all services located at that tenancy and below.
