When you subscribe to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) and connect to and use our cloud-based apps and services, you'll manage a CDF organization. An organization is a collection of CDF projects. The data in one project is completely isolated from the data in other projects.

Depending on your existing infrastructure and needs, you decide which cluster to run your CDF organization in. A cluster determines which cloud provider to use — Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), or Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Each provider has different clusters to store data in your preferred region, such as North America, Asia, or Europe.

Also, you can choose between a multi-tenant or a dedicated cluster:

  • In a multi-tenant cluster, you share cloud storage and computing resources with other Cognite tenants.

  • In a dedicated cluster, your organization uses cloud storage and computing resources exclusively. To request a dedicated cluster, contact your Cognite representative.

You can configure your organization to use your existing identity provider (IdP) — for example, Microsoft Entra ID, Amazon Cognito, or Auth0 — to manage access to your CDF projects. Only users registered in your IdP can sign in to the organization and the projects.
