all tables are translated to an ordered KV store and then broken down into 64MB ranges, which are then used as replicas in RAFT

Sharding

Implicit feature of the cloud service

horizontal partitioning

none

Replication methods

Methods for redundantly storing data on multiple nodes

Multi-source replication using RAFT

yes

implicit feature of the cloud service. Replication either local, cross-facility or geo-redundant.

none

yes, each node contains all data
