meshTenant
meshTenants are the representation of a meshProject in a meshPlatform. meshTenants are isolated cloud environments protected by multi-tenant mechanisms of the cloud platform such as AWS Accounts, Azure Subscriptions or Cloud Foundry Spaces.
meshCustomers don't manually create or manage meshTenants. Instead, meshTenants are always automatically managed through a meshProject.
Replication and Reconciliation
meshStack combines the meshProject configuration (managed in self-service by the meshCustomer admins), the Landing Zone and meshPlatform configuration (managed by the operator) to compute a desired state for each meshTenant.
meshStack continuously reconciles the actual state of meshTenants with their desired state. This process is called replication and ensures that all cloud tenants governed by meshStack are in a known and expected state.
Viewing tenant status
Partners are able to see the full list of tenants with their status in the Administration area. Go to the Administration area and click on 'Tenants' below the Inventory header. The list contains all tenants and their status, which is either:
- Replication successful
- Replication in progress
- Replication failed
Additionally, the list can be filtered on customer, project, location, platform and tenant status.
For more information, click on 'View more' in the tenant list and in this screen additional information is available like System Remarks or User Remarks.
Metadata Tags
meshStack automatically derives metadata tags for meshTenants based on the metadata tags set on the meshProject, the payment method configured on the meshProject and the meshCustomer it belongs to.
Any update to tenant metadata (e.g. a change in payment method) triggers a new meshTenant reconciliation cycle.
