Multi-Tenant Architecture & Advanced Document Parsing Updates

Overview

This document summarizes the comprehensive updates made to the Virtual Board Member AI System to support multi-tenant architecture and advanced document parsing capabilities for tables and graphics.

🏗️ Multi-Tenant Architecture

Core Components Added

1. Tenant Model (app/models/tenant.py)

  • Subscription Management: Tier-based pricing (Basic, Professional, Enterprise, Custom)
  • Configuration: Tenant-specific settings and feature flags
  • Security & Compliance: Data retention, encryption levels, compliance frameworks
  • Resource Limits: Storage quotas and user limits per tenant

2. Enhanced User Model

  • Tenant Relationship: All users belong to a specific tenant
  • Data Isolation: User data is automatically segregated by tenant
  • Role-Based Access: Tenant-specific user roles and permissions

3. Multi-Tenant Data Models

  • Document Model: Tenant-scoped document storage and organization
  • Commitment Model: Tenant-isolated commitment tracking
  • Audit Log Model: Tenant-specific audit trails

Key Features

Tenant Isolation
