Guides Qdrant multi-tenant scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to scale tenants', 'one collection per tenant?', 'tenant isolation', 'dedicated shards', or reports tenant performance issues. Also use when multi-tenant workloads outgrow shared infrastructure.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.

# What to Do When Scaling Multi-Tenant Qdrant Do not create one collection per tenant. Does not scale past a few hundred and wastes resources. One company hit the 1000 collection limit after a year of collection-per-repo and had to migrate to payload partitioning. Use a shared collection with a tenant key. - Understand multitenancy patterns [Multitenancy](https://search.qdrant.tech/md/documentation/manage-data/multitenancy/) Here is a short summary of the patterns: ## Number of Tenants is around 10k Use the default multitenancy strategy via payload filtering. Read about [Partition by payload](https://search.qdrant.tech/md/documentation/manage-data/multitenancy/?s=partition-by-payload) and [Calibrate performance](https://search.qdrant.tech/md/documentation/manage-data/multitenancy/?s=calibrate-performance) for best practices on indexing and query performance. ## Number of Tenants is around 100k and more At this scale, the cluster may consist of several peers. To localize tenant data and improve performance, use [custom sharding](https://search.qdrant.tech/md/documentation/operations/distributed_deployment/?s=user-defined-sharding) to assign tenants to specific shards based on tenant
- Number of Tenants is around 10k
- Number of Tenants is around 100k and more
- If tenants are unevenly sized
- Need Strict Tenant Isolation

What does the qdrant-tenant-scaling skill do?
Guides Qdrant multi-tenant scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to scale tenants', 'one collection per tenant?', 'tenant isolation', 'dedicated shards', or reports tenant performance issues. Also use when multi-tenant workloads outgrow shared infrastructure.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill tenant-scaling --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
