Move order documents to per-tenant keys

You’re the security / reliability engineer. Your team is in the room. Printed Aug 6, 2026.

Data protection changes become difficult when records must remain retrievable throughout an irreversible migration.

Teams tend to balance stronger isolation against continuity for historical operational workflows.

Who you’d be doing this for

“I need old invoices when something goes sideways—I can’t have them disappear.”

Takeshi Park · Owner, independent beauty boutique

Relies on invoices and order records to reconcile deliveries, payments, and vendor discussions.

What is at stake

A review confirms the shared-key design misses a contractual isolation rule that lands next quarter. You have to check migration plans and inventory scans yourself, since a wrong classification can lock records away for good.

Why it isn’t already fixed

Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.

  • stronger isolation vs. historical access
  • deadline certainty vs. verified scope
  • bulk migration speed vs. recovery confidence
  • audit evidence vs. operational usability

Why Faire

At Faire, this can matter because order records often support ongoing retailer, brand, payment, and dispute workflows.
