Any ideas how are the online upgrade teams looking to address this ? Not an 
easy problem to solve.

The direction is additive migrations. Create new columns and tables for new place for the data, but support pulling data from old locations as well. Once all the consumers/producers can read the new table, background data migration starts. Eventually the old tables can be dropped, but that can be an admin action later.

Expand / contract is the term being throw around for this.

Of course, each project is tackling it on their own, and I'm mostly speaking about Nova.
