Horizontal database sharding implemented by model sharding?

What is the best way to implement horizontal database sharding through Django? For example, say I have a class Note. I want to shard the database table Note into N shards based on the Note author's id - author.id % N 1) Should I shard the class Note into N corresponding classes - Note0, Note1, No

You don't say what model this is. Since it doesn't exactly match django.contrib.auth.models, I'm going to guess that you may not be aware that the User model includes first_name, last_name, and email fields of its own. Having duplicated those fields, are you perhaps becoming confused about where
