Orthanc Multi Tenancy

[Vesa Alexandru]

Hello !

It is any support for multi tenancy in Orthanc?

I mean, let's asume that I have 4 hospitals which are send dicom data to my Orthanc dicom server. Do i have any control to separate the data for every tenant?

Thanks a lot !

Hello,

No, Orthanc does not support multi-tenancy. The rationale is that Orthanc being lightweight, multiple Orthanc servers can easily be started, even on the same host.

In your example, you would have to start 4 different instances of Orthanc. You could however connect these 4 instances of Orthanc to the same PostgreSQL server with 4 separate databases. In such a setup, multi-tenancy would be brought through PostgreSQL.

On a related topic, make sure to read the following page:
