Abstract :
With the emergence of SaaS, Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) which supports ISVs to build SaaS applications easily and rapidly is also on the rise. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a metadata-driven cloud platform for delivery of Saas applications. The platform established application layer multi-tenant virtualization approach and hierarchical data model, which can support development through standard SQL and effectively support the tenants´ customization, the unified management of data, and facilitate data sharing between applications, data management rights model and transaction management, but also easy to insure the data node stretching in the cloud.
