Abstract
Techniques are disclosed relating to multi-tenant database systems with underlying key/value storage. In some embodiments, a computing system generates first logical table information for a first portion of a multi-tenant dataset corresponding to a first tenant and second logical table information for a second portion of the dataset corresponding to a second tenant. The system may store the first and second logical tables using non-relational key/value data structures in one or more storage elements, including: storing entries from the first logical table across a first set of multiple key/value store buckets and storing entries from the second logical table across a second set of multiple key/value store buckets. Disclosed techniques may reduce performance issues due to hotspots while allowing efficient data access for a given tenant by limiting the number of buckets per tenant, relative to traditional techniques.
