# Overview

Grafana Enterprise Metrics ships with an [admin API](../admin-api/) that empowers operators to create tenants and corresponding authentication resources to help manage your cluster. A GEM tenant can store metrics and handle queries for those metrics. The data stored in a tenant will be isolated from other tenants in the cluster, unless you are using a [multi-tenant query](tenant-federation/). The [Grafana Enterprise Metrics plugin](../setup-gem-plugin-grafana/) interacts with the admin API to create the resources required to administer a GEM cluster.
