Sharding vs Partitioning

Hello guys... A small read for you

Imagine there is a giant cake 🎂 (data), if you cut the giant cake and keep each piece 🍰 in separate plates (separate database in separate server) -- this is Sharding

If you just cut the giant cake (data) and keep the pieces 🍰🍰 (tables) in same plate (same database in same server) -- this is Partitioning

Both involves dividing data.

In Sharding, as data can be distributed across multiple servers, you can add more servers (horizontal scaling). Thus improves scalability.

Partitioning is dividing tables within same database and dividing tables improves query performance as less data in table means easy to find the information :)

Ok then, See you in next post. Until then #HappyLearning ;)

Hi folks, I just wanna share my story of how I started coding.

I had a little passion of becoming a software developer. That's why I choosed Computer Science in Engineering. I wanted to build some app but didn't know how to start. One of my best friends who was techy in my college helped me on what to learn, how to get started. I started with Java. I enjoyed solving coding problems. That techy best friend explains tech concepts to all his friends and never hesitated to help and I am very grateful to that techy best friend who showed the way how to get started. Slowly I started coding and learnt new tech concepts and implemented it.

Now I’m working as Full Stack Developer with 1 year experience. Tech stacks I work on are Spring, React, Redux, Redux Saga, Datastore.

I try to answer the questions in Stack Overflow and had written an article on Website security.

My coworkers sometimes appreciates my work and often they point out my mistakes as they expect high quality of code. I try to take that in positive way. If no one is telling my mistakes. I will never know my mistakes and will never improve myself. But yes often I felt miserable still I have faith in myself that I will improve myself and will do the best work. I know that they wanted me to improve my tech skills. I am thankful to them.

Now my focus is to learn new things daily, share my learnings to other colleagues and wanna implement it in my self projects, if possible in my office projects. #NeverStopLearning

Just want to conclude by this,

WHEN I FAIL, I SAY TO FAILURE - "HEY I AM COMING BACK SOON TO FAIL YOU" 😎
