I have a solution i want our web team to provide separate customers from vcloud.
The tenant/customer may or may not ever login to vcloud to manage these provided servers. To start it would just be me and my web team managing it for the customers.
I am reading the vmware vcloud director for service providers document here.
I have created my Organization for this solution as "Web Team". Where i am stuck is should i be creating 1 VDC and putting all my customers in it? I notice i can have many edge gateways deployed off of one VDC. This is good as i want each customer to have its own ESG.
Organization VDCs get put under the organization. This makes sense. I want our web team to be an organization providing its "service" to all tenants under it.
The guide states:
An Organization Virtual Datacenter (Org vDC) is a subgrouping of compute and storage resources allocated from a provider VDC and assigned to a single organization. An organization VDC is provisioned resources using vCloud Director resource allocation models. These are represented in vSphere by “resource pools,” defined in Table 2.
Does that verbage mean then i should be creating a single VDC with 100s of customers / vapps and an ESG for each customer attached to this one VDC .........or should i create a vDC for each customer/tenant and put their vAPPs in it....and attach a single edge to each vcd for each customer?
It think the second option of a VDC per tenant sounds the most correct for my use case but i could be thinking about this wrong.
