Multi Tenancy [message #1067177]

I have a requirement to build an application that will be offered to multiple organisations under the SaaS model.

Multi tenancy is a must for this project. Ideally, the data approach will be to use a separate database schema for each tenant.

Does scout support multi tenancy? If not, is multi tenancy on the roadmap?

Many thanks,

Chris

Hi,

don't know exactly what you mean by tenancy but I think we have a similar business case: Our organisations is divided over different geographical regions. Each account is attached to a region. If a user logs in, based on the region, the correct database info is added to the serverSession.

On the server you cannot use the default SQL service because this is just a convenience class that always uses the same connection. Instead you have to create your own ISqlService classes that connect to the correct database schema.

For us this works, dynamically we connect a user to one out of four databases.

Regards Bertin
