Modern multi-tenancy has shifted away from shared application instances and databases toward fully isolated, per-tenant infrastructure. With lightweight virtualization and containers, giving each tenant a dedicated application and database instance is now practical, eliminating complex tenant-aware code, reducing data leak risks, and simplifying noisy-neighbor problems. CD tools like Octopus Deploy handle the deployment complexity by managing tenant-specific configuration variables at deploy time, effectively moving multi-tenancy out of application code and into the deployment pipeline. Tenants don't have to be customers — they can be physical locations or any entity requiring a dedicated instance.
