Sharding [ /ˈʃɑːdɪŋ/ ] is a method of partitioning a database horizontally across separate servers to improve scalability, performance and availability.

In distributed ledgers (DLTs) like Radix, sharding is used to allocate both data storage and transaction execution across a decentralized network of nodes to achieve a high transactional capacity.
