6 Multi-tenancy in Matrix infrastructure orchestration

Multi-tenancy allows data center resources to be dynamically and securely shared among separate
tenants by providing each organization with a virtual infrastructure orchestration system. In Matrix
infrastructure orchestration, tenants are known as organizations.

Overview of organizations

An organization’s virtual infrastructure orchestration system is intended for a business entity that:

has a number of users, or groups of users, that want to use an infrastructure orchestration
system to create services

requires that information about resources, activities, and users is kept private within the
organization and secure from interference from other organizations

There is information security and privacy between the virtual IO systems used by different
organizations. There is no access to the service provider or CMS from an organization.

Matrix infrastructure orchestration contains two levels, Service Provider and Organization.

Service Provider

Matrix infrastructure orchestration contains a single permanent service provider (essentially
the IO system in previous versions). The service provider contains the following roles:

Service provider administrator

Uses the infrastructure orchestration console, and can log in to the infrastructure
orchestration organization administrator portal and the infrastructure orchestration
self service portal for any organization

Has full access and control of the IO system and all its resources
