Multi-Tenant SharePoint Portal to Store Legal Documents Securely

Summary

An international white-label cloud service provider needed a SharePoint service portal that would let its end clients — lawyers — store case files, contracts, notes, and other information, with a separate storage instance for each client. INNERLUXES built a multi-tenant solution that gives every end client an isolated sub-portal, ruling out information leakage and adding a popular new offering to the provider's service catalog.

About the Client

The Client is an international white-label cloud service provider operating in a fast-growing area of cloud computing. The company helps its resellers perform better by increasing profit margins on their existing service offerings and by adding significant value to their service catalogs.

The Challenge

The Client turned to INNERLUXES to develop a SharePoint service portal that would allow end clients (lawyers) to store their case files, contracts, notes, and other information. The solution had to let the Client create numerous versions of the portal so every end client would have their own storage.

The Solution

INNERLUXES developed a solution that lets the company create sub-portals for each end client. Each sub-portal has its own structure and lets a user store various documents. Each client has access only to their own portal, which rules out the possibility of information leakage.

The Results

• INNERLUXES created a complete solution that gives lawyers a handy storage tool for their documents.
• The solution became popular with the target audience and widened the Client's service offering.
