# Multi-Tenant LLM Hosting

Host many teams/customers on shared inference infrastructure without sacrificing security, performance, or cost governance.

## When to Use This Skill

- Building an internal LLM platform shared by multiple teams
- Hosting LLM inference for external customers with isolation requirements
- Implementing per-tenant quotas, billing, and rate limiting
- Designing request routing for multi-model, multi-tenant environments
- Preventing noisy-neighbor issues on shared GPU infrastructure

## Prerequisites

- Kubernetes cluster with GPU node pools
- API gateway or LLM gateway (LiteLLM, Envoy, Kong)
- Prometheus + Grafana for per-tenant observability
- Redis or equivalent for rate limiting state
- Billing system or cost attribution database

## Isolation Model

- Strong tenant identity on every request
- Per-tenant API keys and scoped model access
- Namespace or workload isolation for high-risk tenants
- Strict data retention and log partitioning controls

## Noisy-Neighbor Controls

- Per-tenant RPM/TPM limits
- Concurrency caps and queue isolation
- Fair scheduling with weighted priority classes
- Backpressure and graceful degradation policies

```yaml
# priority-classes.yaml
apiVersion: scheduling.k8s.io/v1
kind: PriorityClass
metadata:
  name: tenant-enterprise
value: 1000
globalDefault: false
description: "Enterprise tenant workloads"

```

## Per-Tenant Monitoring

  - name: tenant-alerts
    rules:
      - alert: TenantBudgetWarning
        expr: |
          llm_tenant_daily_spend_usd
          / llm_tenant_daily_budget_usd > 0.80
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: warning
        annotations:
          summary: "Tenant {{ $labels.tenant }} at 80% of daily budget"

      - alert: TenantRateLimitHitting
        expr: |
          rate(llm_rate_limit_rejections_total[5m]) > 1
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: info
        annotations:
          summary: "Tenant {{ $labels.tenant }} hitting rate limits"

      - alert: TenantErrorRateHigh
        expr: |
          rate(llm_tenant_errors_total[5m])
          / rate(llm_tenant_requests_total[5m]) > 0.10
        for: 5m
        labels:
          severity: warning
        annotations:
          summary: "Tenant {{ $labels.tenant }} error rate above 10%"
```

## Security Baseline

- Encrypt data in transit and at rest.
- Disallow cross-tenant cache leakage.
- Restrict debug data access by role.
- Audit all privileged administrative actions.

## Operational Runbook

1. Onboard tenant with policy template.
2. Issue virtual key and quota profile.
3. Validate observability and billing tags.
4. Run tenant-specific load/safety tests.
5. Enable production traffic with canary limits.

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Check | Fix |
|---------|-------|-----|
| Tenant getting 429 errors | Rate limit counters in Redis | Increase RPM/TPM limits or upgrade tier |
| One tenant slowing others | Concurrent request counts per tenant | Reduce concurrency cap for offending tenant |
| Billing data missing | Redis billing keys and export job logs | Check billing export CronJob and Redis connectivity |
| Tenant cannot access model | Tenant config in ConfigMap | Add model to `models_allowed` list |
| Cross-tenant data leakage | Cache key prefixes and namespace isolation | Ensure cache keys include tenant_id prefix |
| Budget alerts not firing | Prometheus scrape targets and alert rules | Verify metric export and Alertmanager config |
