I suppose you would have an issue with MongoDB specifically if you were trying to rebalance from day one. But generally you wouldn't. I know Foursquare is using MongoDB's Auto Sharding in production and they would definitely have a lot of writes.
And the number of tables DOES matter for sharding if you are implementing it yourself.
- rekoros 14y agoFoursquare's experience with sharding MongoDB has, as far as I understand, been far from automatic and transparent (based on their blog posts and the word on the street).
- taligent 14y agoI've heard Foursquare having a lot of problems with the terrible behaviour of MongoDB once your indexes go above 95% of the machine's memory. Never with the sharding part though.
