I don't understand the reason why you have 2 databases yet. Why do you need 2 databases for Activiti?
It's a rather uncommon use case, so can't give you any pointers without more info.

Hi Tijs,

In my case, there's a security requirement to split customer data into separate logical DBs (which is a common MTA requirement nowadays), while my app is multi-tenant. My current solution is to one Activiti engine per customer in a single JVM ( I'll leave out the gory details for now ), which doesn't work as great. Do you guys have any plans to support this use case anytime soon?

Thanks!

Hi,

So the multi tenant support we have in Activiti 5.15 is not what you are looking for?
We don't have plans for other multi tenant support. What is it specifically what you are looking for?

Best regards,

No, we won't support switching DB's in Activiti.
