Consistent hashing helps solve this. You don't divide into shards based on the id, but on the consistent hash of the id. Then when you have to add shards, it's easier to distribute data to the new shards. If you have 3 shards and expand to 4, only 1/4th of the data from each shard gets moved to the new shard. |
