Sharding is a multi-phase upgrade to improve Ethereum’s scalability and capacity. Shard chains provide extra, cheaper, storage layers for applications and rollups to store data. They enable layer 2 solutions to offer low transaction fees while leveraging the security of Ethereum. This upgrade is planned to follow The Merge of Mainnet with the Beacon Chain.[1]
