How does Liferay facilitate multi-tenancy?

Liferay facilitates multi-tenancy through enabling separate sites and configurations within a single instance. This means that multiple organizations can coexist within the same Liferay platform, each with its own site, content, look and feel, and settings, all managed seamlessly through a single application instance. This approach allows for efficient resource utilization and simplified management, as updates and maintenance can be handled at a central level without the need to manage multiple server instances.

This method of multi-tenancy is advantageous because it minimizes the infrastructure overhead associated with running multiple server instances, while still providing the customization and isolation required by different tenancies. By creating distinct sites within the same Liferay instance, administrators can craft unique experiences for different user groups, maintain specific configurations, and ensure that users interact only with the content pertinent to their designated site, enhancing both security and user experience.
