It used to be that when BMW would refit a factory to build a new car, the only way the automaker could check if the chassis would fit through the production line was to fly a team out and physically push the body through the process, making note of any snags. Now, process engineers can simply run a simulation, sending a 3D model of the car through a near-identical digital twin of the factory. Any mistakes are spotted before the production line is built, saving time and money. Such is the power

Consistent Hashing Ring is a special hashing algorithm primarily used for data distribution and load balancing in distributed systems. It maps the hash value space onto a ring structure, ranging from 0 to 2^32-1. This approach allows us to better handle node addition and removal while minimizing data migration.
