Understanding Deployment Options

Several important factors must shape your deployment plans. Do not create tenants or IP domain definitions without a solid understanding of the following factors:

All of these factors work together to determine your strategy. For example, some data sources do not detect IP domains that are created within tenants.

When planning multi-tenancy configuration options, keep in mind that once data collection has started, it is much more difficult to change IP domain or tenant definitions. The data that CA data sources collect and aggregate retains a database association with the original IP domain or tenant.

We strongly recommend reading Data Source Support for Multi-Tenancy and Domain Monitoring Considerations and understanding those guidelines before you create tenants or IP domains.
