This paper presents Kirigami-Inspired Data Sharding (KIDS), a new framework for secure distributed data processing in the cloud environment. Inspired by the Japanese art of kirigami, KIDS transplants mechanical principles of cutting and folding to operations of information, for better security, elasticity and sovereignty. By identifying breach points, resilience shard mapping and programming, and design with built-in compliance, KIDS achieves superior results compared to existing sharding-based concurrency control schemes. Cross-cloud benchmarks show lower query latency, rebalancing speeds and improved leakage and jurisdictional risk protection across multi-cloud deployments. The results demonstrate the viability of the KIDS as well as a promising research future area in distributed computing.
