Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for adding new nodes to a computer networked system. The systems and methods may identify a first set of nodes in a networked computer system. The first set of nodes may be included in a first hash computation that clusters the first set of nodes into communities. An application shard space including a first space and a second space may be generated. The first set of nodes may be mapped to application shards in the first space based on the first hash computation. The application shards in the first space may be assigned to a first set of machines of the networked computer system. The second space may be maintained for mappings of nodes not included in the first hash computation to application shards in the second space.
