Short answer: Multi-tenancy can involve: Per-tenant databases Per-tenant user stores Per-tenant roles/policies Strategies: Use claims to store tenant ID Filter data per tenant Custom middleware for tenant resolution Can integrate with IdentityServer4 or Azure AD B2C for federated auth.
Real-world example (ShopNest)
A ShopNest checkout request flows through middleware, hits a minimal API or controller, uses scoped services, and returns ProblemDetails on errors.
