creating, by a computing device, an instantiation of a second database; configuring one or more partitions of the first database for transfer to the second database; configuring the second database for receiving the one or more first database partitions, wherein configuring the second database comprises:
creating a second data range on the second database at a location substantially adjacent to the first data range; anddesignating the second data range as changing; transferring the one or more first database partitions to the second database; and deleting data on the first database associated with the transferred one or more first database partitions without deleting the transferred one or more first database partitions from the second database.
