Scaling Sergey Gavruk @gavruk
Scaling • Ver2cal • Horizontal • By op2miza2on – Op2mize
your queries, schema, indexes – Tune you file system – Choose right disks
Share nothing architecture • Michael Stonebraker First
implementa2on in 1983 Google calls this “Sharding”
Sharding goals • App doesn’t know about clusters • Cluster
should always be available for reads and writes • Cluster should grow easily
Sharding features • Range-‐based data par22oning • Automa2c
data volume distribu2on • Transparent query rou2ng

Without shard key + sor2ng mongos Shard 1
Shard 2 Shard 3
Consider the shard cluster if: • Data exceeds the
storage capacity of a single node • Size of working set will soon exceed your RAM • Large amount of writes
Restric2ons • You cannot update a shard key
• You must use a shard key for a single update • Index on shard key
Ideal shard key • easily divisible. • will
distribute write opera2ons among the cluster • will make it possible for the mongos to return most query opera2ons directly from a single specific mongod instance
Choosing a shard key {
_id: "1", user_id: "2345652221", date_2me: "2012-‐10-‐04“, tweet_text: “Hello world” } Reliability
Choosing a shard key Ascending { TimeStamp:
12355232, … }
Choosing a shard key Low-‐cardinality key {
Con:nent: “Europe”, Name: “Tom”, … } Zip code?
