Multi tenant implementation

We’ve added a note about multi-tenancy to the Parse Server repository. It is not officially supported and won’t be considered in future changes of the codebase. That means, even if it currently may somehow work technically, it may break in the future. (Any breaking changes in public APIs would of course happen in major version releases.)

The main reason behind this decision is Parse Server’s current architecture. Multi-tenancy would require per-tenant isolation which would require significant changes. It would also create a completely new internal attack surface within Parse Server, which is not a can we intend to open at this point. In fact, we are aware of existing critical security issues that would arise with multi-tenancy which will deliberately not be addressed or published, as they are out of product scope.

We are also planning to clean-up the codebase of legacy features, which may further complicate multi-tenancy, such as:
