Knowledge Notes | Sharding
① Sharding originated in database technology. It means splitting data and computing tasks into multiple parts, with each shard processing its part in parallel.
② In a sharded blockchain, each node only needs to process transactions from a portion of the shards, and the network’s overall processing capacity increases as the number of shards grows.
③ When you see claims that “sharding delivers ultra-high TPS,” ask a few more questions: How many validators secure each shard, and how long do cross-shard transfers take?
