SHARDING
Sharding is a type of database partitioning that separates very
large databases into smaller parts called data shards The Internet
user_id link 1 phpers.pl 1 meetphp.pl 1 php3city.pl
user_id link 1 phpers.pl user_id link 1 meetphp.pl user_id link

How to shard ?
modulo
key % shards count = server id
sh.st/1
crc32('1') % 3 = 2
Sharding is hard. Resharding is harder !
crc32('1') % 3 = 2 crc32('1') % 4 = 3

Key is unique throughout system
Adding shards ?
consistent hashing

oversharding
problems sharding implementation ? which tables shard ? how big
are our tables ?
problems data count pagers/lists
sharding count insert/select one of the last things to do
