John exemplified engineering excellence during the course of designing and implementing the Dynamic Rebalancing feature of VShards. The new feature designed and implemented by John allows the system operator to dynamically adjust the total storage of VShards, adjusting the capacity either up or down as needed. Adjustment of storage can be done while the system is online and serving requests.
This is a major technological advance for VShards and John has applied for a patent for this work. The system has been operating in production with no issues since being introduced in June 2011 with this feature."
