# Tenants

## Overview

The Tenants module provides administration capabilities for managing tenant-level configurations in skyData. A tenant represents your organization's dedicated environment with its own storage, search services, and database configurations.

## Key Capabilities

### Tenant Creation

Set up new tenants with customized configurations for data storage and platform services. Each tenant receives a unique identifier for mapping and reference purposes.

### Storage Configuration

Configure Azure Data Lake Gen2 settings for data storage:

* **Default Settings** - Use skyData-managed storage with default configurations
* **Custom Configuration** - Connect your own Azure Data Lake Gen2 account with custom credentials

### Azure AI Search Integration

Configure search capabilities for your tenant:

* **Default Settings** - Use skyData-managed AI Search services
* **Custom Configuration** - Connect your own Azure AI Search service with custom credentials

### Database Settings

Configure Cosmos DB settings for tenant operations:

* **Default Settings** - Use skyData-managed database services
* **Custom Configuration** - Connect your own Cosmos DB instance with custom endpoints and keys

### Vector Database Configuration

Set up Astra DB for vector storage and retrieval:

* **Default Settings** - Use skyData-managed vector database
* **Custom Configuration** - Connect your private Astra DB with custom credentials

## Configuration Options

Each service can be configured with default skyData-managed settings or custom configurations:

| Service              | Default Option     | Custom Configuration         |
| -------------------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------- |
