Technologies are described herein for implementing a hosted multi-tenant application system. The server computers utilized to provide the hosted application are organized into logical groupings of server computers called scale groups. One or more tenants are assigned to each scale group. When a new tenant is provisioned, the tenant is assigned to a scale group and a database server in the assigned scale group creates a database for the tenant. An association between the tenant and the scale group is also created in a shared configuration database. When a request is received from a tenant to access the hosted application, the shared configuration database is consulted to locate the scale group hosting the tenant. Once the appropriate scale group has been located, the request is redirected to the appropriate scale group for processing.

Multi-tenant hosted application system

Technologies are described herein for providing a hosted multi-tenant application that utilizes per-tenant unshared private databases. A shared middle-tier is utilized in conjunction with private, unshared databases for each of the tenants. The private, unshared databases are utilized to store application data for an associated tenant, along with any customizations to the application implemented by the tenant. A shared configuration database is also utilized that stores application data that is shared among the tenants. When a request is received from a tenant to access the hosted application, the shared configuration database is utilized to locate the private, unshared database associated with the tenant making the request. The contents of the private, unshared database associated with the tenant making the request are then utilized to response to the request.
