What is another term used for a tenant in SailPoint Identity Now?

In SailPoint Identity Now, a tenant refers to an instance of the Identity Now platform that is dedicated to a particular organization or user group. This term encapsulates the concept of a distinct environment that is isolated from others, allowing an organization to manage its identity and access management needs independently.

Using the term "organization" to describe a tenant emphasizes its role as a specific entity utilizing the platform. Each organization can configure its settings, applications, and identity governance according to its unique requirements. This tailored approach is essential for ensuring compliance and security within the organization's identity management processes.

The other terms do not accurately reflect the essence of a tenant. While a "region" might imply geographical or data center segmentation, and "cluster" could suggest a grouping of multiple entities, neither captures the individual organizational context that a tenant embodies. Similarly, a "service" typically refers to a function or capability that the platform provides, rather than the isolated environment that represents a specific organization. Thus, "organization" is the most appropriate and commonly used term for a tenant within the SailPoint Identity Now framework.
