CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

A SaaS startup builds a multi-tenant CRM where each tenant’s data is logically separated within a shared database schema by a tenant_id foreign key in every table.

Key decisions

  • All tables include a tenant_id FK to Tenant to enforce data isolation at the application level.
  • Users, contacts, leads, deals, and activities are scoped per tenant.
  • Relationships are defined with mandatory foreign keys and many-to-one cardinalities.

When to reuse this

Use this pattern when building a multi-tenant SaaS application where simplicity and resource efficiency outweigh strict physical data isolation, and row-level security is managed in the application layer.
