Thread: Multitenent architecture
Hi All,
We are planning a POC on multitenant architecture in Postgres, Could you please help us with steps for multitenant using schema for each application model.
Thank you so much all.
Regards,
Vasu

For few tenants, you can keep identical tables in several schemas and set "search_path" to select a tenant. With many tenants, you are better off with one table that holds the data for all clients. You can use Row Level Security to have each tenant see only his or her data, and it might be a good idea to use list partitioning on the tenant ID.

If the data size is more than 6TB, which approach better?

Hi Rob,
Our environment is medical clinical data, so each clinic as a tenant. Approximately 500+ tenants with 6TB data.
Thank you in advance.

There's a good article on the AWS blog on multi tenancy with postgres:
This is similar to Laurenz's second suggestion.

Hi guys - apologies for jumping into the middle of this, but it touches on precisely one of the topics I'll have to deal with soon. We're standing up a pharmacovigilance / drug safety platform managing ICSRs (HL7 "individual case safety reports" that must be FDA/ICH compliant) and will be dealing with multi-level privacy and compliance (HIPAA, GDPR, PHI, CCPA, etc.) at levels such as Patient, Doctor, Pharmacist. This first part deals with adverse drug events in the "post marketing" realm, i.e., drugs already approved and in the marketplace. Our model will also expand to support pre-marketing, i.e., clinical trials and the like.
Far easier to have one coherent data model and tackle compliance as a multi-tenant / multi-level-secure database issue. We just have to make sure we do this so it's rock solid and also facilitates the business / use cases that need to be executed.
I'd love to compare notes with anyone else doing something along those lines. @Vasu - it sounds like you're smack in the middle of this. Let me know if you'd be open to connecting and comparing notes on this topic. (anyone else as well!)
Thanks,
- Jon

The important number to base this decision on would be the number of tables you'd expect in the database. It shouldn't be too many. If the database grows large, you may be better off sharding the database together with partitioning it across schemas. Several smaller databases are easier to back up and make scaling easier. Of course that requires your application to be part of the solution: it needs to know which database to use for which tenant. Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Cybertec | https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com

Hi All,
Our project uses each database for tenant, But how can we restrict tenant resources?
Ex: Tenent1 has to use 20% resource and Tenent2 has to use 10% resource, how can we restrict users like this.
Thanks and Regards,
Vasu Madhineni

together with partitioning it across schemas.
Several smaller databases are easier to back up and make scaling easier.

it needs to know which database to use for which tenant.
