Sharding and partitioning are useful when we want to scale our databases (both storage and compute) and directly improve the overall throughput and availability of the system. In this article I deep into details around how a database is scaled using sharding and partitioning, understanding the difference and different strategies, and learn how they beautifully fit together, and help us handle the desired scale. Once you read the blog, you will never be confused between the two; moreover, you will know all the practical nuances as to what it takes to configure either in production.
