Abstract
A method for highly efficient data sharding includes: receiving a dataset containing event data; identifying a classifier field of the dataset; identifying an event field of the dataset; generating a data structure for the dataset using the classifier field and the event field; and storing the dataset by partitioning the dataset into shards using the classifier field as a shard key and ordering data within each shard by the classifier field.
