How to Replicate Data Across All Shards in Python
Mocks a global table that replicates a key-value pair to every shard, ensuring reads return the same value from any shard.

from typing import Dict, List
@dataclass
class Shard:
id: str
data: Dict[str, int]
class GlobalTable:
def __init__(self, shards: List[Shard]):
self._shards = {s.id: s for s in shards}
