Finbuckle.MultiTenant is an open-source multitenancy middleware library for .NET. It enables tenant resolution, per-tenant app behavior, and per-tenant data isolation. See https://www.finbuckle.com/multitenant for more details and documentation.

Finbuckle.MultiTenant is designed to be easy to use and follows standard .NET conventions as much as possible. This introduction assumes a standard ASP.NET Core use case, but any application using .NET dependency injection can work with the library.
First, install the Finbuckle.MultiTenant.AspNetCore NuGet package:
.NET Core CLI
$ dotnet add package Finbuckle.MultiTenant.AspNetCore
Next, in the app's service configuration call AddMultiTenant<T>
and its various builder methods:
builder.Services.AddMultiTenant<TenantInfo>()
.WithHostStrategy()
.WithConfigurationStore();
Finally, in the app pipeline configuration call UseMultiTenant()
before UseEndpoints(...)
to register the
middleware:
app.UseMultiTenant();
...
app.UseEndpoints(...);
That's all that is needed to get going. Let's breakdown each line:
builder.Services.AddMultiTenant<TenantInfo>()
This line registers the base services and designates TenantInfo
as the class that will hold tenant information at
runtime.
The type parameter for AddMultiTenant<T>
must be an implementation of ITenantInfo
and holds basic information about
the tenant such as its name and an identifier. TenantInfo
is provided as a basic implementation, but a custom
implementation can be used if more properties are needed.
See Core Concepts for more information on ITenantInfo
.
.WithHostStrategy()
The line tells the app that our "strategy" to determine the request tenant will be to look at the request host, which defaults to the extracting the subdomain as a tenant identifier.
See Strategies for more information.
.WithConfigurationStore()
This line tells the app that information for all tenants are in the appsettings.json
file used for app configuration.
If a tenant in the store has the identifier found by the strategy, the tenant will be successfully resolved for the
current request.
See Stores for more information.
Finbuckle.MultiTenant comes with a collection of strategies and store types that can be mixed and matched in various ways.
app.UseMultiTenant()
This line configures the middleware which resolves the tenant using the registered strategies, stores, and other
settings. Be sure to call it before calling UseEndpoints()
and other middleware which will use per-tenant
functionality, e.g. UseAuthentication()
.
With the services and middleware configured, access information for the current tenant from the TenantInfo
property on
the MultiTenantContext<T>
object accessed from the GetMultiTenantContext<T>
extension method:
var tenantInfo = HttpContext.GetMultiTenantContext<TenantInfo>().TenantInfo;
if(tenantInfo != null)
{
var tenantId = tenantInfo.Id;
var identifier = tenantInfo.Identifier;
var name = tenantInfo.Name;
}
The type of the TenantInfo
property depends on the type passed when calling AddMultiTenant<T>
during configuration.
If the current tenant could not be determined then TenantInfo
will be null.
The ITenantInfo
instance and/or the typed instance are also available directly through dependency injection.
See Configuration and Usage for more information.
The library builds on this basic functionality to provide a variety of higher level features. See the documentation for more details:
- Per-tenant Options
- Per-tenant Authentication
- Entity Framework Core Data Isolation
- ASP.NET Core Identity Data Isolation
A variety of sample projects are available in the repository.
