Lessons Learned: Sharding for startups

This is a really interesting concept to me. We used this time of partition when I was at FedEx only we had a Tuxedo routing layer that stored the shard routing in memory and persisted it in a Sybase database.

I can think of innumerable uses for this in my current work too but I hadn't really given it much thought until recently.
