Sharding

consistent hashing

Shared Nothhing Auto-Sharding, Columnar Partitioning

horizontal partitioning

by range, hash, list or composite

Replication methods

Methods for redundantly storing data on multiple nodes

Multi-Source deployments with MongoDB Atlas Global Clusters
Source-replica replication

Electable source-replica replication per shard. Support distributed global deployment with Multi-region table feature

Source-replica replication with selectable replication factor

Multi-source replication
Source-replica replication
