Kubernetes as a distributed operating system for multitenancy/multiuser

摘要

A client device sends a connection request to a virtual system in a Kubernetes cluster. The connection request identifies the client device and the application to which the request pertains. Based on a tenant associated with the client device, the virtual system connects the client device to an instance of the application. The instance of the application has access to data for the tenant but not for other tenants. Another client device of the tenant sends another connection request to the virtual system for a connection to another application. Because the tenant is the same, the instance of the other application may access the same data as the instance of the first application. In this way, applications for a single tenant may share data while maintaining the security of the data from other tenants.
