Key Design Principles

1. Tenant Isolation

Each tenant's data is logically isolated to ensure security and privacy:

interface Tenant {
  id: string;
  subdomain: string;
  customDomains?: string[];
  settings: TenantSettings;
}

2. Domain Routing

We use middleware to detect and route requests based on hostname:

  • customerA.example.com → Tenant A
  • customerB.example.com → Tenant B
  • Custom domains via CNAME

3. Performance Optimization

  • Edge Caching: Static assets cached at CDN edge
  • Database Indexing: Tenant-aware indexes for fast queries
  • Connection Pooling: Efficient database connection management

Challenges We Faced

  1. Cross-Tenant Queries: Ensuring no data leakage
  2. Scaling: Handling thousands of tenants
  3. Customization: Per-tenant theming and features

Results

  • 99.99% Uptime
  • <100ms Response Time
  • 10,000+ Active Tenants

Conclusion

Building a multi-tenant platform requires careful planning, but the benefits are worth it. Stay tuned for more deep dives!
