OctoLintDirectTenantReferences

OctoLintDirectTenantReferences returns a warning if common groups of tenants are directly referenced across accounts, certificates, and targets.

Recommendation

Tenants can often be grouped based on shared properties like regions, release rings, performance tiers etc. These grouping are best expressed as tenant tags.

However, it is also possible to refer to groups of tenants directly, creating an implicit group of tenants. This can be seen when the same group of tenants is directly referenced across multiple resources like accounts, certificates, and targets. Replacing these implicit groups of tenants with explicit tenant tags improves the manageability of the Octopus instance.

Remediation

Consider grouping tenants with tags and referencing the tags on accounts, certificates, and targets.
