+# Goal
+
+LMDB allows a single writer, which mean concurrent writes are not possible. The
+goal of this document is to come up with a way to have multiple writers operate
+on a subset of the PumpkinDB database using multiple LMDB volumes.
+
+# Backstory and Reasoning
+
+As things stand, PumpkinDB is backed by a single LMDB volume. This approach is
+understandably to optimize for the development of PumpkinScript and other
+important features such as locking, support for multiple writers etc. We
+anticipate a time when a single writer will be a bottleneck to the throughput
+of a PumpkinDB installation, hence the importance of coming up with approaches
+to support multiple writers.
+
+# Architecture
+
+Instead of a single LMDB volume, a PumpkinDB installation can be configured to
+be backed by multiple volumes, and writes sharded between them using a consistent
+hash function (where keys are consistently hashed to the same volume). This would
+make it known where a key should be looked up and where a key should be written,
+the two most common operations in PumpkinDB.
