Introducing SaaS shared services

Before we start working with tenants, lets introduce the services that allows us to onboard, authenticate, and manage the multi-tenant environment. The services, which are referred to as “shared services” will provide the core functionality that is common to all tenants.

Lab2 goals:

  1. Introduce Shared services, which enable the onboarding, authenticatication and management of a multi-tenant environment.

  2. Multi-tenancy UX:

    • Allow end-users to self-register for a tenant
    • Provide a SaaS admin-console that a “super admin” uses to manage tenants. The app consumes the shared services to register, authenticate, and manage tenants.

  3. Introduce the Fauna parent-child database construct, that allows for siloed segregation of tenant data.
