Hi guys, If we have 64 partitions with 4 nodes, each of the nodes has 16 partitions like this
Node1: p1 ~ p16 Node2: p17 ~ p32 Node3: p33 ~ p48 Node4: p49 ~ p64 Now if I add a new node Node 5, each node should handle 12.8 partitions, so the partitions should look like this Node1: p1 ~ p13 Node2: p14 ~ p26 Node3: p27 ~ p39 Node4: p40 ~ p52 Node5: p53 ~ p64 So, I guess Riak would have to re-hash the whole partitions into all the 5 nodes, right? Is this done lazily when the node finds the requested data is missing? Or is there a way to handle this with consistent re-hashing so we can avoid moving data around when new nodes added? Thanks, Daniel
