Multi-Tenancy in Hibernate — Schema, Database & Discriminator Strategies

A SaaS application serving multiple tenants needs a deliberate, structurally-enforced isolation strategy — Hibernate has first-class support for three distinct approaches, each with a genuinely different isolation-versus-operational-cost tradeoff.

Learning objectives

  • Explain the three Hibernate multi-tenancy strategies and their isolation-versus-cost tradeoffs.
  • Implement a CurrentTenantIdentifierResolver and explain how it drives Hibernate's automatic tenant filtering.
  • Choose the right multi-tenancy strategy (or hybrid) for a given tenant count and isolation requirement.
