Abstract
A device such as a data storage system comprises a non-transitory memory storage comprising instructions, and one or more processors in communication with the memory. The one or more processors execute the instructions to: map a different portion of data in a storage device to each of different caches, wherein each cache is in a computing node with a processor; change a number of the computing nodes; provide a modified mapping in response to the change; and pass queries to the computing nodes. The computing nodes can continue to operate uninterrupted while the number of computing nodes is changed. Data transfer between the nodes can also be avoided.
