Multi-tenant architecture diagram

​
Overview

Bluvo’s multi-tenancy architecture is what powers our enterprise-grade security model, delivering true physical isolation for all customer data. Instead of sharing databases with logical separation, Bluvo provisions dedicated database instances for each customer—completely eliminating cross-tenant data vulnerabilities while maximizing performance for crypto exchange operations.

​
Motivation

Most crypto API providers do not implement true multi-tenancy. They typically use shared database architectures where your sensitive exchange credentials live alongside other customers’ data, separated only by logical boundaries that could potentially be bypassed. Traditional approaches to multi-tenancy are not suitable for sensitive crypto operations. This is because crypto exchange data:
  • Contains highly sensitive API keys that could grant trading access if compromised
  • Requires microsecond-level performance for time-sensitive trading operations
  • Must comply with increasingly strict regulatory and audit requirements
  • Needs to scale unpredictably based on market conditions and trading volumes
  • Requires high availability with minimal downtime
Once you understand the unique challenges of handling exchange connectivity at scale, even more complications emerge:
  • Protecting sensitive credentials while maintaining fast access
  • Ensuring consistent performance regardless of overall system load
  • Meeting data residency requirements across global jurisdictions
  • Handling the “noisy neighbor” problem when one tenant’s operations affect others
  • Maintaining audit trails and clear data lineage
  • Creating true security boundaries for regulatory compliance
Bluvo’s multi-tenant architecture solves these problems out-of-the-box, with zero additional configuration needed from your engineering team. The system is designed from the ground up to handle the unique requirements of crypto exchange operations.

​
Implementation

At its core, Bluvo provisions a dedicated database instance for each customer organization:

​
Instant Database Provisioning

When you sign up for Bluvo, we automatically provision a dedicated database instance for your organization. This instance is:
  • Tables for storing your exchange API keys (encrypted at rest)
  • Wallet configurations and connection details
  • Transaction history and execution logs
  • Monitoring hooks and performance metrics

​
Global Distribution Network

Your isolated database is then automatically replicated across our global network:
  • Data is positioned in 30+ regional endpoints across six continents
  • Requests are dynamically routed to the closest data center
  • Trading operations gain proximity advantages by being physically closer to exchanges

​
Enterprise-Grade Security

Every customer database receives multiple security layers:
  • At-rest encryption using AES-256 with per-tenant keys
  • Tenant-specific encryption keys that cannot unlock other customers’ data
  • Physical isolation that creates true security boundaries

​
How It Works

When your application interacts with Bluvo’s API:
  1. Your request arrives with your organization’s API key
  2. Our system identifies your tenant and locates your dedicated database
  3. Your request is routed to the optimal regional endpoint
  4. Operations execute in your isolated environment
  5. Results return over an optimized connection with JSON serialization
The physical separation means that even if an attacker somehow compromised one tenant’s environment, they would have no path to access other customers’ data. Multi-tenant architecture diagram

Benefits

Bluvo’s multi-tenant architecture delivers these key benefits for developers:
  • Help you eliminate complex security code from your application and replace it with simple API calls
  • Make your exchange integrations more reliable and faster without custom optimization
  • Have a direct impact on your trading operations through consistently low latency
  • Simplify compliance for security audits and regulatory requirements
On a more technical level, you get:

​
Performance Gains

  • Dedicated resources with no resource competition
  • Geographic optimization placing data near exchanges
  • Consistent response times even under system-wide load

​
Compliance Benefits

  • One database = one boundary for simplified auditing
  • Clear data lineage with isolated storage
  • Regional compliance through geographic distribution

​
Code Implementation

Here’s how simple it is to execute a trade using Bluvo with all these security benefits: 
// Execute a BTC/USDT market buy on Binance
const order = await client
    .wallet
    .placeOrder({
        walletId: 'wallet-id-here',
        market: 'spot',
        symbol: 'BTC/USDT',
        side: 'buy',
        type: 'limit',
        price: '177000',
        amount: '0.01'
    });

// Behind the scenes, Bluvo:
// 1. Authenticates your request against your isolated database
// 2. Retrieves and decrypts your exchange credentials
// 3. Routes your order to Binance with minimal latency
// 4. Records the execution in your dedicated database
// 5. Returns the result to your application
All of this happens with millisecond-level performance, while maintaining complete isolation of your exchange credentials and trading data.
