Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for splitting partitions across database clusters in a time-series database are disclosed. A time-series database determines that a heat metric for the first tile has exceeded a threshold. The first tile represents spatial boundaries and temporal boundaries of time-series data, and a lease for the first tile is assigned to a storage node. Based (at least in part on) the heat metric, a temporal split of the first tile is performed to generate an intermediate tile representing the spatial boundaries and a later portion of the temporal boundaries. A spatial split of the intermediate tile is performed to generate second and third tiles representing two portions of the spatial boundaries and the later portion of the temporal boundaries. The storage node stores elements of the time-series data within these new boundaries to the second and third tiles.
