In a single-tenant system, it is often incumbent on the customer to spend more resources to maintain a server or cloud instance. That means you need both the staff and the money to maintain your systems. With a multi-tenant architecture, maintenance is often taken care of at the top level. Adjustments are dispersed uniformly amongst the cloud’s multiple customers. Cloud backup is also simple—the architecture keeps your data secure and safe by separating it from other users. This functionality is also what gives Flash the ability to manage Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance for operators. When card processors lose billions each year from data breaches, operators suffer the costs of increased fees to compensate. The multi-tenant architecture provides the power for Flash to manage PCI data standards automatically to save operators from the higher costs.
Multi-tenant systems are also easily scalable because changes can be easily implemented and distributed from a high level. Oftentimes, businesses realize they need more computing power as they expand. When that happens, the existing infrastructure of the cloud will allow for more resources to be used when requested, while costing less than a single-tenant system. If you’ve opened parking assets in new locations, the only thing you’ll have to do is make sure the right hardware is in place. The cloud will already be ready to adapt to your new space.
