Question
An analytics software as a service (SaaS) provider wants to offer its customers business intelligence (BI) reporting capabilities that are self-service. The provider is using Amazon QuickSight to build these reports. The data for the reports resides in a multi-tenant database, but each customer should only be able to access their own data. The provider wants to give customers two user role options:
- Read-only users for individuals who only need to view dashboards
- Power users for individuals who are allowed to create and share new
dashboards with other users Which QuickSight feature allows the provider to meet these requirements?

Explanation
Amazon QuickSight namespaces provide logical isolation within a single QuickSight account, making them ideal for multi-tenant SaaS applications. Each namespace has its own pool of users and groups, and data access can be scoped to that namespace. Within each namespace, you can assign roles - Readers (read-only dashboard viewers) and Authors (who can create and share dashboards) - which directly maps to the two user roles required. This allows the SaaS provider to onboard each customer into their own isolated namespace while managing everything from a single QuickSight account. Option A (Embedded Dashboards) is a delivery mechanism for embedding content in external apps, not a multi-tenancy isolation feature. Option D (SPICE) is an in-memory query engine, not a security feature.
