Dynamic Data Models

Zango introduces the concept of Dynamic Data Models (DDM), which is a powerful feature designed to meet the specific needs of multi-tenant systems. This innovative concept allows you to define different data models for each tenant within the same application, making Zango a versatile platform for building multi-tenant applications.

Multi-Tenant System​

A multi-tenant system is an architecture where a single software application serves multiple clients, known as tenants. Each tenant operates independently within the same application, with its own data, configuration, and customizations. Multi-tenancy is commonly used in scenarios where several clients or organizations share the same software instance while keeping their data and settings isolated.

Dynamic Data Models​

Dynamic Data Models (DDM) in Zango take the multi-tenant concept a step further. With Dynamic Data Models, you can define unique data structures, or data models, for each tenant in your multi-tenant system. These data models can include tables, fields, relationships, and rules, allowing each tenant to have a tailored data schema that suits its specific requirements.

Key features of Dynamic Data Models in Zango include:

1. Tenant-Specific Data Structures​

  • Each tenant can have its own set of data models and tables.
  • Custom data models can be defined and updated on the fly without affecting other tenants.

2. Isolated Data​

  • Data for each tenant is stored separately, ensuring data security and isolation.
  • Tenants cannot access or modify data structures of other tenants.

3. Cost Savings​

  • Utilizing a single database for multiple applications reduces infrastructure costs.
  • Maintenance and management are streamlined, as you manage one database instead of maintaining separate databases for each tenant.

4. Scalability​

  • Easily scale your multi-tenant application by adding new tenants with their own data models.
  • Accommodate different business needs and workflows for various clients or organizations.

5. Customization​

  • Tenants can define and customize their data models to meet their unique requirements.
  • Adapt the application to different industries, use cases, or user groups.

6. Flexibility​

  • Developers can work on individual tenant data models independently, facilitating rapid development and updates.
  • Data models can evolve as tenant needs change, ensuring long-term flexibility.

Dynamic Data Models in Zango empower you to create versatile and cost-effective multi-tenant applications that adapt to the diverse requirements of your clients or organizations. This innovative feature sets Zango apart as a robust platform for building and scaling multi-tenant systems.
