Methods for storing different data on different nodes

Sharding, horizontal partitioning

Sharding via remote tables

horizontal partitioning, sharding with MySQL Cluster or MySQL Fabric

Sharding

Sharding, partitioned with virtual buckets by user defined affinity key. Live resharding for scale up and scale down without maintenance downtime.
