Request for Instana’s authentication function

The customer would like to request to enable the use of multiple (at least two) Azure AD tenants for SAML authentication IdP.

Our customer is using two Azure AD tenants as the authentication provider. One is for headquarter, the other is for IT subsidiary.

Currently, they register Azure AD tenant for headquarter as Instana’s SAML authentication IdP, but this occurs complexity in their Instana operation.

If Instana supported registering multiple Azure AD tenants for a single Instana backend server, it would significantly simplify their operations and maintenance. 

If this feature is not acceptable, the customer would like to use both SAML authentication and Instana’s built-in authentication using individual IDs and passwords.
