Patrick,
We were just talking today about this today. The general consensus was
that when we get filtered replication you'll be able to setup the new
nodes/shards with a replication strategy and things will just balance
out as needed. Then you can just update your routing configs and get the
load to spread amongst the different servers.
Granted until there's code that's fairly hand wavy.

Hey all,
I'm using one+ db per server right now on couchdb. From what I read,
in the future it will be possible to have one db on several servers
thanks to partitioning. I know it's very painful to make the switch to
partitioning on mysql and other RDBMS so my question is: is there a
way to know right now how difficult it will be to make the switch to
partitioning for us early couchdb adopters? I guess using replication
it shouldn't be too hard but I'm curious :)
Thanks in advance,
Pat
