What is Sharding? Well, Sharding is a concept that is widely used in databases in order to make them more efficient. A shard is a horizontal portion of a database, with each shard stored in a separate server instance. This spreads the load and makes the database more efficient. In the case of the blockchain, each node will have only a part of the data on the blockchain, and not the entire information, when sharding is implemented. In this video, let's learn what crypto sharding in blockchain is, how sharding works, its pros and cons, and what alternatives can we opt for.
