Apartment is a Ruby gem providing database-level multi-tenancy for Rack and Rails applications, supporting tenant isolation via PostgreSQL schemas or separate databases. It offers tenant creation, switching, and per-request tenant management integrated with ActiveRecord.

Use cases

• isolate each customer's data in its own database schema in a Rails app
• switch tenants per request based on subdomain or user
• run migrations across all tenants
• sequester account or company data while sharing some common data
• create and manage tenants programmatically in a SaaS application

When to choose

• you're building a Rails/Rack SaaS app needing schema- or database-per-tenant isolation
• you want drop-in ActiveRecord multi-tenancy with per-request tenant switching middleware

When to avoid

• you use row-level tenancy (a tenant_id column) rather than schema/database isolation
• you're on a non-Ruby stack or non-ActiveRecord ORM
• you need a project under active development - it is in maintenance mode with no license file
