What is a cloud tenant?
A cloud tenant is an individual or organization that subscribes to and uses services provided by a cloud computing platform. These services include virtual machines, storage, and software. Tenants share the same infrastructure in a secure, isolated manner. They can customize services, scale resources, and are billed based on usage.
Cloud tenants interact with providers like AWS, Azure and Google Cloud to access computing resources tailored to their needs. They benefit from customization, scalability, and pay-as-you-go pricing. Cloud providers maintain security and logical separation among tenants, allowing them to share physical infrastructure while keeping their data and services isolated.
