NOSQL  database  distributes  and  replicates  data

Logical  ringData  is  automaEcally  replicated  to  mulEple  nodes.

LocaEon  of  data  can  be  designated,  for  instance,  to  mulEple  datacenters  and  per  rack.

In  theory,  #  of  nodes  in  a  logical  ring  can  be  up  to  2127  (almost  infinite).

Data  load  can  be  rebalanced  when  a  node  is  added  or  removed.
