Shixa

Overview

Shixa is a multi-tenant educational operating system that consolidates management, student tracking, and analytics for multiple institutes on a shared platform.

Architecture

• Infrastructure: AWS EC2 with Cloudflare R2 for asset storage
• Data: PostgreSQL with a 3-tier multi-tenant architecture
• Access: RBAC with feature flags so tenants only see what they pay for

Outcomes

• Production uptime targeted at 99.9% across active tenants
• Designed for concurrent institute load rather than single-school demos

Lessons

Multi-tenancy is a product decision first — isolation, billing surfaces, and feature flags — not just a schema trick.
