Hi Ganesh, I have experimented with sharded indexes and they seem to benefit me(atleast in my case). I would like to know a few things before I answer your question: 1. Do you have a reasonable criteria ( a calculated one) to shard the indexes? 2. How do you plan to split the index? Is it going to be document based (which I guess it should be as otherwise you would have to build a complete distributed system) 3. Do you plan to put your indexes on the RAM or on (physically) seperate HDDs?
Though all said and done, sharded indexes are a good approach, if done the right way. -- Anshum Gupta Naukri Labs! http://ai-cafe.blogspot.com The facts expressed here belong to everybody, the opinions to me.
