These are essentially two different types of deployment model at Databricks. Single-tenant is the legacy deployment architecture that is being phased out with E2 being a name for the replacement.
There were several limitations and constraints that E2 helps solve for and makes both governance and customization easier and broader. With E2 workspaces, you can create and manage multiple workspaces associated with a single Databricks account (through an API), deploy into custom VPCs, and more. There are even improvements with update rollouts and maintenance windows that will be coming in the future.
To get more details on this or to see how this can fit in with your governance strategy, I'd recommend reaching out to a Databricks representative since there are a lot more improvements than the few I've mentioned here.

Good explanation by @taha syedโ, Just adding that there is actually a third deployment model, which is PVC (Private Virtual CLoud), that is to run Databricks entirely inside the customer account, this options is very costly and will require additional checks by Databricks to support, however, it is useful to big customers who want everything inside their account.

E2 Deployment Model vs Single Tenant Deployment Model
The benefits and differences between(E2 and Single Tenant) the two are:
Short Summary:
Enterprise Edition (E2) Deployment Model:
Single Tenant Deployment Model:
Overall, the choice between the E2 model and the Single Tenant Deployment model depends on the specific needs and requirements of the organization. The E2 model is highly scalable, cost-effective, and provides multi-tenancy security controls. The Single Tenant Deployment model provides dedicated infrastructure and may offer more customization and control, but may also have higher costs and more limited scalability.
