Task Patterns​
Primary Tasks​
- Schema Design: Create efficient key hierarchies for all entities
- Repository Implementation: Build type-safe data access layers
- Migration System: Implement safe schema evolution
- Performance Optimization: Tune for <10ms operations
- Backup Strategy: Automated backup and recovery
Delegation Triggers​

Success Metrics​
- Zero tenant data leakage incidents
- All operations <10ms p95
- 1000+ bulk operations/second
- 100% transaction success rate
- Zero data loss incidents
Example Workflows​
Workflow 1: New Entity Schema​
1. Design key hierarchy with tenant prefix
2. Create data model with validation
3. Implement repository with CRUD
4. Add secondary indices if needed
5. Write migration script
6. Test multi-tenant isolation
Workflow 2: Performance Optimization​
1. Profile current operations
2. Identify hot keys or large scans
3. Redesign key structure if needed
4. Implement batching for bulk ops
5. Add caching layer if appropriate
6. Verify improvements
Common Patterns​
// Multi-tenant key builder
pub struct KeyBuilder {
tenant_id: String,
}
impl KeyBuilder {
pub fn new(tenant_id: String) -> Self {
Self { tenant_id }
}
pub fn user(&self, user_id: &str) -> String {
format!("{}/users/{}", self.tenant_id, user_id)
}
pub fn project_members(&self, project_id: &str) -> String {
format!("{}/projects/{}/members/", self.tenant_id, project_id)
}
pub fn audit_range(&self, start: i64, end: i64) -> (String, String) {
(
format!("{}/audit/{:020}", self.tenant_id, start),
format!("{}/audit/{:020}", self.tenant_id, end)
)
}
}
// Repository with tenant isolation
#[async_trait]
impl UserRepository for FdbUserRepository {
async fn create_user(
&self,
tenant_id: &str,
user: NewUser,
) -> Result<User, RepositoryError> {
let kb = KeyBuilder::new(tenant_id.to_string());
let user_key = kb.user(&user.id);
self.db.transact(|tx| async move {
// Check uniqueness
if tx.get(&user_key, false).await?.is_some() {
return Err(RepositoryError::AlreadyExists);
}
// Create user
let user = User::from(user);
tx.set(&user_key, &serialize(&user)?);
// Index by email
let email_key = format!("{}/indices/email/{}",
tenant_id, user.email.to_lowercase());
tx.set(&email_key, user.id.as_bytes());
// Audit log
let audit_key = format!("{}/audit/{:020}:{}",
tenant_id, Utc::now().timestamp_nanos(), Uuid::new_v4());
let audit = AuditEntry::user_created(&user);
tx.set(&audit_key, &serialize(&audit)?);
Ok(user)
}).await
}
}
// Efficient range queries
pub async fn get_recent_tasks(
db: &Database,
tenant_id: &str,
limit: usize,
) -> Result<Vec<Task>> {
let prefix = format!("{}/tasks/by_date/", tenant_id);
let range = RangeOption {
begin: KeySelector::first_greater_or_equal(&prefix),
end: KeySelector::first_greater_than(&prefix),
limit: Some(limit),
reverse: true, // Most recent first
..Default::default()
};
db.transact(|tx| async move {
let kvs = tx.get_range(&range, false).await?;
kvs.into_iter()
.map(|kv| deserialize::<Task>(&kv.value()))
.collect::<Result<Vec<_>, _>>()
}).await
}
// Migration pattern
pub async fn migrate_users_v1_to_v2(
db: &Database,
tenant_id: &str,
) -> Result<()> {
let migration_key = format!("{}/migrations/users_v2", tenant_id);
db.transact(|tx| async move {
// Check if already migrated
if tx.get(&migration_key, false).await?.is_some() {
return Ok(());
}
// Get all v1 users
let prefix = format!("{}/users/", tenant_id);
let range = RangeOption::from(&prefix[..]);
let users = tx.get_range(&range, 1000, false).await?;
// Transform and write back
for kv in users {
let mut user: UserV1 = deserialize(&kv.value())?;
let user_v2 = UserV2 {
id: user.id,
email: user.email,
created_at: user.created_at,
email_verified: false, // New field
};
tx.set(&kv.key(), &serialize(&user_v2)?);
}
// Mark complete
tx.set(&migration_key, &Utc::now().to_rfc3339().as_bytes());
Ok(())
}).await
}
Anti-Patterns to Avoid​
- Don't forget tenant prefix on any key
- Avoid unbounded range scans
- Never use UUIDs in key paths for time-series data
- Don't create transactions larger than 10MB
- Avoid synchronous operations in async contexts
