A Microsoft Entra tenant is a representation of an organization. It's a dedicated instance of Microsoft Entra ID that an organization receives when they create a relationship with Microsoft by signing up for Azure, Microsoft 365, or other services. Each Microsoft Entra tenant is distinct and separate from other Microsoft Entra tenants, and has its own tenant ID (a GUID). For more information, see [What is Microsoft Entra ID?](../../active-directory/fundamentals/active-directory-whatis.md)

Typically, in order to manage Azure resources for a customer, service providers must sign in to the Azure portal using an account associated with that customer's tenant. In this scenario, an administrator in the customer's tenant must create and manage user accounts for the service provider.

With [Azure Arc–enabled servers](../../azure-arc/servers/overview.md), customers can manage Windows and Linux machines hosted outside of Azure on their corporate network, in the same way they manage native Azure virtual machines. Through Azure Lighthouse, service providers can then manage these connected non-Azure machines along with their customers' Azure resources.

[Azure Arc–enabled Kubernetes](../../azure-arc/kubernetes/overview.md) lets customers attach and configure Kubernetes clusters outside of Azure. When a Kubernetes cluster is connected to Azure Arc, it appears in the Azure portal with an Azure Resource Manager ID and a managed identity. Clusters are attached to standard Azure subscriptions, are located in a resource group, and can receive tags just like any other Azure resource. Through Azure Lighthouse, service providers can connect Kubernetes clusters and manage them along with their customer's Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters and other Azure resources.

As a service provider, you can manage on-premises Windows Server or Linux machines outside Azure that your customers have connected to their subscription using the [Azure Connected Machine agent](../../azure-arc/servers/agent-overview.md). When viewing resources for a delegated subscription in the Azure portal, you'll see these connected machines labeled with **Azure Arc**.

As a service provider, you can connect and disconnect on-premises Windows Server or Linux machines outside Azure to your customer's subscription. When you [generate a script to connect a server](/azure/azure-arc/servers/learn/quick-enable-hybrid-vm), use the `--user-tenant-id` parameter to specify your managing tenant, with the `--tenant-id` parameter indicating the customer's tenant.

You can manage these connected machines using Azure constructs, such as Azure Policy and tagging, just as you would manage the customer's Azure resources. You can also work across customer tenants to manage all connected machines together.
