It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly. **Documentation System Migration and New Docs App** * Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to point to the new location.

## Instance Structure
|
|
|
|
An instance is the top node in ZITADEL's data hierarchy.
|
|
Within an instance all the default [settings](/concepts/structure/policies),
|
|
such as branding, login policy, password policy, etc. for the system can be configured.
|
|
One instance normally runs on one domain and represents one issuer (e.g login.customer.com).
|
|
|
|
One instance can contain multiple [organizations](/guides/manage/console/organizations-overview),
|
|
which in turn can represent your own company (e.g. departments), your business customers or a consumer organization.
|
|
|
|
Read more about how to configure your instance in our [instance guide](/guides/manage/console/default-settings).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This overview shows the general structure of ZITADEL.
|
|
You will find more detailed explanations around the different concepts in the following sections.
|
|
|
|
## Multiple Virtual Instances
|
|
|
|
ZITADEL has the concept of virtual instances.
|
|
When installing ZITADEL from scratch, one instance is always automatically created for you.
|
|
Nevertheless, you can add more virtual instances via the [system API](/reference/api/system).
|
|
This is useful if you have business customers, which in turn have their business customers with self service and Custom Domain demands.
|
|
By providing a virtual ZITADEL instances, your customers have all the customization options available in ZITADEL.
|
|
Scaling ZITADEL instances virtually enables you to easily distribute your limited compute resources to all your customers.
