Abstract. The problem of the organization of distributed storage of large amounts of data in large-scale cluster systems is considered. A method of data distribution across cluster nodes using consistent hashing is presented. The basic method of consistent hashing, as well an improved method using virtual nodes are described.
Keywords: distributed storages, database scalability, datasets, sharding, high-loaded systems
