A set of partial tenant objects are created within a hosted service. The set of partial tenant objects have placeholders for tenant identifiers, domain identifiers and user identifiers. Upon receiving a request to provision a tenant, a particular partition of the hosted service, corresponding to the tenant, is identified and a provisioning agent in the identified partition is called to provision the tenant. The provisioning agent selects one of the partial tenant objects which is bound to tenant-specific information, such as a specific tenant identifier, custom domain chosen by the tenant, and a user identifier input by the tenant.

Fast provisioning of tenants on a hosted service

Tenant changes are received at a multi-tenant service. The tenant changes are segmented, by tenant, and individual update streams are established with individual tenant stream processors. Each tenant stream processor makes changes for a given tenant, until the changes for that tenant are completed.
