honestly might be the most complete and thorough explanation of sharding.

You've simplified your explanation like google engineers do when they give lectures, I'm sorry if that sounds strange but I've realized that the people who simplify complex things they really know what they are doing awesome man Cheers.

Been studying system design for interviews. All the videos handwave to sharding. We would shard the db across different regions. I had rough idea what it is that we split the db in to smaller pieces, but nothing concrete.

Now it make perfect sense with this amazing video

This is seriously such a great video man. I spent the entire Sunday understanding Sharding. Not that I didn't get started with the concept, however, this video just made everything clear at the end of the day. Thank You.

In most ~20min videos, I get tired soon and close them after 5min. I can’t believe your video is so good that I totally forgot time and finish watching all of it
