Abstract
A solution is proposed for managing a multi-tenant software application adapted to serve a plurality of tenants. A deletion request is received for deleting one of the tenants from the plurality of tenants. Responsive to receiving the deletion request, an instance of the software application associated with the tenant to be deleted is disabled. The disabled instance of the software application associated with the tenant to be deleted is deleted after a protection period from the deletion request. An addition request for adding a new tenant to the software application is received. An instance of the software application for the new tenant is allocated to a selected instance of the software application.
