The method disclosed is for instantiating a second cluster based on a first cluster. For at least one node of a second plurality of nodes, generating per node data based on mappings between a plurality of partition groups and a first plurality of nodes, the first plurality of nodes corresponding to the first cluster. The method further discloses identifying data items included in the plurality of partition groups based on the mappings between the plurality of partition groups and the first plurality of nodes. The method further discloses each partition group corresponding to a node of the first plurality of nodes and comprising a subset of data items stored in the node. The method further discloses loading the data items included in the plurality of partition groups onto the second plurality of nodes, the second plurality of nodes corresponding to the second cluster.
