Question
A company is deploying Business Central on-premises.
The company plans to use a single-tenant deployment architecture.
You need to describe how the data is stored and how the Business Central Server is configured.
In which two ways should you describe the single-tenant architecture? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. Each customer has their own Business Central Server. Correct
- B. The application and the business data are stored in the same database. Correct
- C. Multiple customers share a single Business Central Server.
- D. The application and business data are stored in separate databases.
- E. Multiple customers share multiple Business Central Server instances.
Explanation
A single-tenant deployment is the classic one-server-one-database setup: each customer has their own Business Central Server, and the application and the business data sit together in one database. Sharing a server between customers, as in options C and E, describes multitenancy, where one server instance can support many tenants. Storing the application in a separate database, as in option D, is the design multitenancy relies on so that one application database can serve many tenant databases.
