1. Introduction
1.1. Platform Overview
The Swedwise SaaS Platform is a multi-tenant, cloud-based infrastructure platform that provides the foundation for delivering enterprise-grade business applications as Software-as-a-Service. Built on modern Kubernetes orchestration and hosted in Swedish data centers, the platform enables secure, scalable, and compliant delivery of business-critical services.
This service description defines the platform-level services, infrastructure, and support that apply to all customers regardless of which specific service components they subscribe to. Component-specific details (such as OpenText Communications, WOPI Server, or other applications) are documented in separate Service Component Addendums.
1.2. Multi-Tenant SaaS Model
The platform employs a multi-tenant architecture where:
- A common software installation serves multiple customers
- Complete isolation of customer data and configurations
- Each customer may have one or more tenants (e.g., production, development, test)
- Dedicated resources allocated per tenant based on subscription tier
- Shared infrastructure optimized for efficiency and cost-effectiveness
1.3. Swedish Data Residency
All customer data is stored and processed exclusively within Sweden:
- Primary Data Center: Sweden (Entiros AB)
