Investigating CockroachDB Performance and Stability With 22k Databases and 300k Tables

When it comes to managing multi-tenancy, there are a number of architectural routes you can take. A couple of the most popular are:

  1. Create a database per tenant.
  2. Use a single database but with tenant IDs to separate out data.

Difficulty: Beginner (assumes no prior experience with CockroachDB or Deno)
