Terms in this definition
- Tenant
A trusted, dedicated Microsoft Entra ID instance that stores the users, groups and app registrations of one organisation. A subscription trusts only a single tenant, although a tenant can be trusted by several subscriptions.
- ALL
A DAX function that ignores any filters and gives back every row of a table or every value of the named columns. Used within CALCULATE, it works as a modifier that clears filters, although REMOVEFILTERS states that intent more clearly where it is available.
- VCF Automation
Self-service platform in VCF for provisioning VM, Kubernetes and AI workloads. Providers manage regions and tenants in one portal, while tenants handle projects and consumption in theirs.
- VPC
Isolated network space in NSX, made up of subnets that its own VPC gateway routes between. Each one belongs to an NSX project and gets external connectivity from a transit gateway.
- transit gateway
Joins up a project's VPCs with each other and with outside networks in NSX, either in a distributed fashion on the hosts or centrally via a Tier-0 gateway running on an Edge cluster.
- IP space
VCF Automation provider object holding CIDR ranges set aside for VCF; organizations are given public addresses from it, and it is tied to provider gateways.
- provider gateway
Gives tenant organisations in VCF Automation a route to external networks, built on an NSX Tier-0 (or Tier-0 VRF) gateway and drawing addresses from linked IP spaces. Several organisations may share one.
- region
A provider-defined grouping in VCF Automation of Supervisors that all share one NSX Local Manager; tenants consume its compute, storage and memory via quotas set per region.
