This doesn't make sense: - i think encryption at rest would probably just use symmeyric encryption which is unaffected by shor - how does the attacker get into your network in this scenario. Stuff encrypted at rest by definition is not flying around the network. - what sort of scenario would be involved where the attacker knows how to get one db but not the others? The hard part is figuring out the first db > Drawbacks of course include “performance degradation”, “increasingly complex app”. On the contrary, sharding is a super common performance technique.
