Abstract

Systems, methods, and machine-readable memories are provided for partitioning a multi-tenant database between tenants. A first level partition of data in a table within the database is defined. A second level partition of the data in the table within the database is defined. A request is received from an entity associated with a tenant to access a first datum stored in the database. The tenant is determined to be assigned to one or both of the first level partition and the second level partition. Access to the first datum is granted to a first entity where the tenant corresponds to the first tenant and the first datum corresponds to the first level partition parameter value. Access to the first datum is granted to a second entity where the tenant corresponds to the second tenant and the first datum corresponds to the second level partition parameter value.
