Cross tenant data access is provided by creating a logic view in a meta database with respect to at least a first tenant of a group of tenants and according to metadata about the respective tenants. The logic view is based upon first data owned by the first tenant as well as second data that is owned and authorized by at least another tenant of the group of tenants for the first tenant to access. The logic view in the meta database is accessed in response to a cross tenant data access request from an application of the first tenant.

Cross tenant data access

Methods, computer program products, and system are presented. The methods include, for instance: identifying, by one or more processor, a current task, obtaining, by the one or more processor, an indicator of a commencement of a switching event, where the switching event includes a transition originating from the current task and concluding at a new task, obtaining, by the one or more processor, behavior analysis data relating to a plurality of past switching events, where each past switching event includes a transition originating from the current task and concluding at a target task. The behavior analysis data includes a timestamp for each past switching event. The method also includes determining, by the one or more processor, based on the behavior analysis data, at least one recommended task, where the at least one recommended task includes at least one target task.

Intellective switching between tasks

Embodiments relate to manipulating a multi-tenant database, wherein the multi-tenant database comprises one or more source databases for storing tenant data. An aspect includes receiving a database operation request for one or more tenant-specific logic views, wherein the tenant-specific logic views are created for respective tenants based on mapping information pointing to the one or more source databases included in the multi-tenant database and multi-tenant metadata. Another aspect includes acquiring the mapping information related to the database operation request and pointing to the one or more source databases included in the multi-tenant database. Yet another aspect includes performing a database operation corresponding to the database operation requested for the one or more source databases based on the acquired mapping information.
