1. No more than 100 million documents per shard. 2. Number of replicas to meet your query load and to allow for the possibility that a replica might go down. 2 or 3, maybe 4. 3. Proof of concept implementation to validate the number of documents that will query well for a given number of documents per shard. But be aware that a query for the sharded version will be slower than for a single-shard implementation.
