What is sharded cluster?



What is sharded cluster?..

Answer / Vineeta Pandey

A sharded cluster is a distributed database architecture that scales horizontally by partitioning data across multiple nodes or servers, called shards. Each shard contains a subset of the total data and can be managed independently. This design allows for improved performance and availability, as read and write operations can be parallelized across multiple shards. Sharding is particularly useful for handling large datasets and high traffic applications.
